Pros
Citi is a nice place for people to work at. People are friendly and share ideas and inforamtion readily. The calibre of people is not the greatest but folks make up for it by being helpful. Bosses are smart People are firendly Hours are long but not insane Ability to move between businesses and globally Stable company in these uncertain markets Growth opportunities are available and so is the ability to learn other businesses Very diverse - is truly a color and gender blind organization Overall great place with nice people
Cons
Low compensation Really mediocre benfits Infrastructure is fragmented and this leads to a lot of difficulty in identifying root causes of issues and problems. THere is a lot of rework in the capital markets side and this leads to breaks and costs. Very few women in higher ranking line positions Poor calibre of people - the average employee is quite average Culture that is fragemented due to its long acquisition history and still has old loyalties (SB vs. Citi vs. Solly) Career paths are not defined but you can see a way up
