Pros

Innovative banking solutions. The last word in banking in terms of global reach, product suite, impact to customers, technology and problems to solve. Always rewards the people with go getter atttitude.

Cons

Politics and red tape that blunts the effectiveness of the good part of working in Citi. No Human resources development . Sometimes you could feel overwhelmed by the in sensitivity of the place.

Pros

the Fed won't let us fail.

Cons

nothing gets accomplished at this company. There's issues that keep coming up every year, we analyze it and come up with a recommendation. People spend time reviewing it then nothing becomes of it. This is a very big company so it's easy to get lost. In addition, things happen at this company that don't happen elsewhere.

Management team was abivalent towards new hires and offered no guidance to ensure success

Pros

The benefits were outstanding! 22 vacation days, and 12 "personal days" which were to be taken for any given reason...that along with 10 holidays -- astronomical!! They were very concerned with VOE, the Voice of the Employee. This was a new concept for me as I was surrounded by the mantra "VOC" Voice of the Customer and our bottom line was obviously tied to bringing in new customers and/or clientele. The Blue Ash facility is outstanding and a real plus to the community. I think they'll eventually make this facility the de facto Center of Excellence; but it will take time.

Cons

The management team in Long Island City was horrendous about assigning responsiblities, guiding new employee's or offering constructive feedback. I knew that I had made a mistake after just 3 weeks of accepting a job with them.
