A pretty decent place to work.

Pros

Unless you work in a super high priority application, work pressure is manageable. Work timings depend on the region you support- North America, EMEA, Asia-Pacific, etc.

Cons

May not get challenging tasks regularly. Can also get stuck using the same tech stack over a long duration. But Citi supports internal and external mobility to switch tech stacks and business units, so nothing to fear here.

Pros

- The health benefits are actually good for the area I was in. - 401K match to 6% - Work from home was available on an as needed basis - Most of the people were dedicated and care about their job. - They place a heavy emphasis on volunteering and helping other people. - Mandatory paid time off - Health rewards cards and benefits - Employee break room is well stocked. I was impressed.

Cons

- The 15% bonus “given to the highest performer” annually is subjective. This is a real deterrent to doing high quality work. - A lot of the good talent has already left the company. - Women leaders are not empowered to make decisions. The company talks about tolerance yet none of the women in our area, who were promoted to higher management, made the decisions. This is very backward. - You’re lucky if you get more than 3% per year in pay raises. - Exit interviews are not given to all employees. - Lots of micro-managing. Heaven forbid if you have your own mind. - Little training is provided on the system. - Vague and often unattainable annual goals that must be completed usually before October.
