Pros

Pay is decent. Good benefits. Time off starting.

Cons

Nearly everything else. Managers never answer new hires seeking help. The "Helpgate" set up to assist staff will drive all your metrics into the TRASH trying to seek help or escalation. Training is trash. Trainers are good, but the curriculum is one of the most horrid vide-fests in the history of my corporate careers from Accenture to Chase Bank. All the information is presented POORLY. None of the systems links or info is presented until the end. Want time off? They won't tell you about NICE until near the end, so if you put it into WORKDAY...well enjoy your no call no show. HR is a JOKE. They literally made it impossible to reach anyone via phone and will be condescending if you make a case and reach out via chat. They do everything they can to keep a CLOSED DOOR POLICY. If you're in San Antonio. AVOID THEM LIKE THE PLAGUE. Plenty of other fraud jobs are around in the city starting at higher pay and same benefits. This is a waste of time if you have ANY fraud experience like me. SMEs have been here 5+ years with zero promotions. This job is a JOKE when it comes to UPWARD movement. You have to move sideways and pray it's a better paying position.

Pros

Hybrid schedule, supportive managers, opportunities

Cons

Once you’re in, comp basically plateaus. Layoffs are happening across the board, which tends to be the full-time culture of citi. The vibe is very much “run lean” until something actually breaks, and only then consider adding headcount. You have to be intentional about protecting your work-life balance, because the implicit expectation is that you’re always on—24/7, 365—without the support of a properly staffed team.
