Citi Employee Reviews & Ratings

Limited and vague standard of promotion opportunities. Tech stack and skill sets behind general hiring market. Unsatisfying pay.

Location limited, re orgs a lot

The bank is exiting locations

high work intensity in markets

Huge turnover and layoffs due to acquisition

Currently has a lot of layoffs

Constant transformation is chaos for employees

If you are extremely ambitious about the pay, then go for someother bank.

The C in Citi stands for change and we’ve had a lot of it the last 3 years.

Communication could be improved quite a bit

I don’t have any cons

heavy workload, slow salary increase

bonus's and pay drastically vary between departments, and the workload of individuals at the same level varies when compared to other sectors of business. Within client onboarding individuls are expected to do work above their paygrade/level without compensation for this. There is an expecation to be performing at the higher level before a promotion is even considered even if the individual has exceeded targets/expectations for their currently role, and there is no gurantee indivual will be promoted. Performance evaluation revolves around targets and metrics with litle consideration to achievements not target based.

Wasn't the strong M&A leadership team

not that I could think off

Some leaders are not supportive.

Laying off laying off laying off

The manager is very rude

Unattractive bonus Healthcare not up to par Long hours

awful company, terribly run and haphazard. easily the worst company I've worked for.

Not much cons at CITI

Growth,management,long term ,specifics and benifits

Too much hierarchy that boggs down people

Its ok some time we make extra time

Preference for Prestigious Degrees: There may be a tendency to favor candidates with expensive MBA degrees from top institutions for higher positions, sometimes overlooking equally talented and knowledgeable employees with diverse educational backgrounds.

lack of new learning opportunities at work

Slow career progression, high volume of works

Working in banking in general is littered with regulation. So lots of nuances to follow within the job.

Work life balance is hard, staffing availability

Merged with Axis only drawback

-Extreme long approval process -Senior management with old-school mindset - Toxic management, micro management and middle manager pretending to work -Heavily repetitive tasks every day -Bad system and IT support -long working hour

Slow progression and no staff benefits

Strict policies / guidelines Outdated systems

No annual party held for past 2 years. Nothing much about off-site plans

Compensation is relatively uncompetitive compared to the other major bulge bracket banks

Stress from the higher ups that are scared of losing job - flows down to moi

Nothing to share as no cons

Satellite offices have low profile, which can mean reduced visibility while growing your career.

team is poorly run, ineffective management, only PMO projects, no career advancement

It was not good to develop my data scientific ability

I was used as a full time employee with the reduced pay

1. Little work life balance depending upon team 2. Too many processes

Doesn’t pay good remuneration package. Benefits are static for 1st year. Leadership are not well groomed hence you maybe under valued.

Company uses sick time taken against you, frequent layoffs

Culture atmosphere work place return to office

workload especially during summer months

Too much politics. The firm talks about employee engagement but then if you have a real life issue, no one cooperates. Too many jargons. No WFH options

High levels of change Perks average Jargon heavy

No cons as of now

Long hours and can sometimes be stressful
