Citi reviews

I loved the atmosphere here at this particular location. Given the nature of the work that was done there, employees were permitted to dress in casual attire with only a few minor dress code rules. The job was quite simple to complete once training was completed. The work is monotonous, however, employees are cross-trained in all departments and so the ability to change what you do throughout the length of your shift makes it easier. The shifts always would go by quickly and when there was minimal work available, once everything was completed for the shift, employees were aloud to leave for the day early. This was a great perk because we would still get paid for having worked the entire 8 hour shift. There is a Aramark cafeteria to purchase meals, snacks and beverages for those that wish too and while pricey, it is very good food. The management staff are always super helpful to the employees and are all very down-to-earth and not intimidating in the least. The only downside of the role itself is that the work environment is very open....almost as though you are in a large school cafeteria and you are able to sit wherever you would like to sit and with whomever you would like to sit with. Talking amongst one another is also permitted so long as no one is getting so loud that they are disturbing others around them. That being said, due to the majority of the employees on my particular shift being rather young, like in their early to mid 20s...there was a lot of employees that would , how do I put this...have relations outside of work and oftentimes the drama of it all would make its way back into the workplace. Basically, everyone knew what everyone was doing outside of work and with whom. There were many employees that were dating another employee on the same shift. And this was not always an issue really, until the two were not an item anymore and then the unnecessary drama would begin. This was probably the most annoying thing about working there overall. But as far as the job itself, the pay was really good and job security was really good as well. I left as I was in the late stages of pregnancy and left just before my due date and had no plans to return as I was intending to be a SAHM for at least 2 or 3 years after my daughter was born. Worked here for around about 3 years, give or take and I would have continued to work there if it were not for having been pregnant and having to leave to have my baby. There are 3 shifts and its quite simple to change what shift you are working on to one of the other two shifts available, from what I witnessed. I saw plenty of co-workers who wanted to switch to either 1st or 3rd shift for whatever reason. It typically was a pretty swift process, as well ....I don't know if that is still the case today or not, but I cant imagine much has changed there. I would recommend this employer as its a great company to work for and they have many great benefits and very good starting pay.

The brand name still carries some weight on a resume, and there are individual colleagues who are genuinely talented and trying their best within a difficult environment.
