Pros

Shuttle bus is provided - that's probably the main good thing

Cons

1) Cost cutting everywhere, resulting in incompetent and badly trained staff mainly from HR (made up of shared services team in Mumbai, India and Manila, Philippines - you can imagine the kind of quality you get from these places). 2) Horribly low bonus (it's so low that you have to laugh, yet Citi is shameless enough to continue with this practice for so long - it's measured in weeks, not months). Annual salary increment is less than SG's inflation rate of 5%. 3) Unfair HR practices - HR is never there to conduct open, fair and transparent processes for the benefit of the staff. 4) Management (SVP and beyond - many are incompetent, and just good at being hypocrites) 5) Low morale now given the constant changes and restructuring 6) Too many Indians in Citi and their performance make people feel that they are there by way of referral and not by merit

Pros

Benefits and time off are definitely a plus, very accommodating.

Cons

Great working environment, but you need to be co cern every year when cuts hit. They rate you average if they plan on cutting you and it seems like the cuts are based higher on the older employees that have many years with the company. Growth was non existing, every year it was senior managers are not allowing any promotions even to 2 rating employees for many years.
