Business Outlook

Pros

it's pay better than other competitior (banks) in the same position as personal banker. such as bank of america, wahington mutual, wells fargo bank. The base salary is almost the same, starting out 40k dollars. but then the commission is monthly. which give an opportunity for personal banker to get pay every month.

Cons

The managers and co-workers at some location are very up-tight, not very helpful for new employees. The training provide by the company isn't that great, but able to survivie. On the job support from management is ZERO. The managers will yell at you if you make a mistake, don't let you go to lunch, break.

A great training ground, but internal complications and extended timelines force out many.

Senior vice president

Business Outlook

Pros

Having business in over 100 markets presents legitimate global career opportunities. There are also pportunities to move across business lines and build a career in whatever manner of one's choosing. Bright people really strive to make the best of their work, and one is surrounded by earnest, smart thinking.

Cons

Citi is heavily matrixed which requires too many stakeholders. The company stll hasn't effectively capitalized on synergies across product lines to benefit our customers - and it make take years to really accomplish that. There are not enough O&T resources to get any projects done.
