Pros

Exposure to wide varieties of technologies. Nice people. Opportunities to hone your political skills. Lots of diversity, lots of different kinds of people to meet. You get to interact with a vast array of people.

Cons

Too much politics. Real workers who want to just do their job are not allowed to work sincerly. ITs a political jungle in there. Extremely vertical groups, each group only does their thing, and nothing else. ITs like wearing blinders to work. There is no sharing of data/information between groups, and there is a lot of back stabbing and back biting.

Pros

Very fast paced work environment, able to learn different things, whether within one group, job posting to other groups, or involuntary reorgs.

Cons

Senior mgmt decision making process very "shoot from the hip"; constantly changing priorities mainly due to indecision; extremely political environment; extremely difficult to advance with constant hiring of outsiders into senior positions.

Pros

Prestige, market position and quality of the work colleagues was a key benefit of working at Citi. The firm's market dominance in the corporate fixed income, equities and M&A markets allowed me to work on high-profile transactions with the world's premier clients.

Cons

Chaotic management environment. I was with Citigroup and its predecessor firm, Salomon Brothers, for over five years. While the management of the Investment Bank was dominated by executives of the former Salomon franchise, there were numerous executive changes, which coincided with a severe market downturn.
