Pros

There are a lot of opportunities to work in different areas of the company and learn new skills due to the large size and scale of Citigroup.

Cons

Due to the large size and complexity of the organization, it is hard to feel like you matter to senior management. Often times, it is difficult to get changes and improvements made due to the substantial layers of management and the amount of bureacracy involved within the company.

Pros

Good brand name, better compensation then most of the local banks, friendly worker environment, steady workplace if you like, in-house trainings. Also it is easier to find jobs in market after getting labeled as a "previous employee of Citibank". Although the group got smaller, currently it is reorganizing itself, so the change yields to new opportunities to show yourself and go further. If you are interested in a career in banking & finance, Citigroup provides a solid name and opportunities for the ones who wants further in area...

Cons

less opportunity to move further, bigger than it should be, senior managements failures in decisions, unnecessary long bureaucracy, rivalry for power between departments (which encumbers the speed of process), unnecessary outsourcing, not enough planning

Pros

Good benefits package. Other than that, not a thing. Unless you happen to luck out and get a half way decent manager that is willing to back you and support you ( of course only if deserve it) you will not and I repeat will not make any type of progress in your career. And unless you step in a pile of you know what, you are stuck at the spot in which you first applied to.

Cons

Management has no idea what they are doing if they actually do do anything at all. Nothing but politics and who a popularity contest.
