Pros

There was no good reason to work here.

Cons

Politics, greed, and all anyone cares about there is making money for the co's bottom line (so they can waltz into senior mgmt office and say "look at me, I"m great") Then those types get promoted. It's never about the client at Citi. The praise environmentally work, which is a joke, because they encourage the use of bottled water and refrigerators at each cubicle. And they do nothing to encourage less printing or recycling of paper.

Pros

Most of the managers I have met have been very approachable and more than willing to share words of wisdom. Excellent training and mentoring program. Decent opportunities for career advancement. The work atmosphere is really nice and the company makes the effort in taking care of their employees. Compensation and benefits are on par with most other banks.

Cons

As in many places there is always the usual office politics going on that can affect the way the team functions as a whole. You'll encounter a number of fellow employees who are only willing to look out for themselves and will shamelessly do whatever it takes to move up the ladder.

Pros

The benefits package has been very very good throughout the years, although it has also gotten more and more expensive. It pays well but expects 150% for that payment. Do not start there thinking it will be a breeze, it is not. No one has been treated well, and they are all more than willing to share the misery. But like I said it pays better than most places in this town.

Cons

Long hours, expectations from management that are unclear, senior management seems unclear on anything. Rewards are few, and are given to the people who promote themselves the most, or the people whos management takes the time to recognize them.
