Pros

Company has good benefits. Good place to continue education and learn...if you can find the time...

Cons

Turn over is extreme, no work/life balance, total sweat shop! Upper management is an intertwined clique that switch between companies and keep looping back. Not a great place to grow unless you are completely "moldable". The culture is beyond weird, and people barely even speak to one another.

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.
