Pros

Stable paycheck I had a good manager Bonus Stable job job was not too hard

Cons

Very old software. Laptops given are extremely slow and it was not making us productive. No money for monitor or home office setup. Too strict about coming to the office. No clear areas of responsibility, everyone dropping the ball, team meetings of 2 hours without clear action plans. Management change too often, team name changed 4 times in a year. Whole team job can be now automated with AI but Citi is too slow therefore behind competitors. Job is good if you have kids and rather at the end of your career, for growth other places are better

Pros

Great Benefits and colleagues, but poor management here. Some managers are decent, but expectations are extremely high for a very low base pay. Very little to no room for advancement within the company unless management favors you. Metrics and monthly sales quotas are highly stressed, but they do nothing for you in regard to moving up in the company.

Cons

Very low base pay Little to no room for advancement High sales quotas/ little bonus Toxic management Extended hours No OVERTIME PAY
