      Citi is a frustrating place to work!

      Pros

      Citi is a large company with great brand recognition. Until the recent financial melt down, I was proud to work for Citi and having Citi on my resume was a huge bonus.

      Cons

      Citi is so large that the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing. There are a lot of good things but too many bad. Because Citi is so big, it costs a lot of money and time to fix an issue or implement a new technology. Citi no longer has the money and we never have the time.

      Pros

      Being that Citi is such a large organization, I sat on a floor with people from 3 different business groups however everyone was very friendly and welcoming. The culture in the organization is great. management is very helpful and are great in the mentoring process for junior employees. The compensation is on par with most other organization but it has a better work / life balance than most organizations. The work is is fairly easy to learn in a short amount of time and management will not micromanage once junior employees have learned how to do the job efficiently and successfully.

      Cons

      The most significant downside of Citi is how far behind the organization is in technology. Far too much time is wasted performing work that could be easily generated by a computer if historical information could be logged in to an efficient record keeping system. Sometimes the work can be a little too easy and seem like busy work. The work of an analyst is fairly easy to master but it takes a long tome to get promoted to credit officer. Citi seems like a huge puzzle but all the pieces that Sandy Weill acquired in the nineties do not figure together very well.

      Overall, a good place to work. It's all what you make of it.

      Pros

      I happen to have a set of good senior managers directly around me, so it makes things quite satisfying. I have also managed to acquire a good team under me - excellent people. The work is for the most part interesting, and the work-life balance is good. They do recognize top talent, just wish there was more of it. There are some good people, there are some bad. Still trying to figure out who's who sometimes...

      Cons

      Just wish we had a higher percentage of really good people...I think Citi is just too nice sometimes and really needs to clean house a bit more. Most of the groveling comes from those who should have departed long ago. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but it's the truth.
