Pros

It's a subsidiary of Citibank N.A. and a member of Citi. International communications/cooperation/teamwork skills can be gained from global dev model.

Cons

Management team failed to show the respects to their local stuff. Hard to leave the most valuable talent. Not open culture. Salaries are not satisfactory

Pros

Lot of locations from which to choose.

Cons

I believe the job of the financial consultant, as structured by Citi - as well as Merrill, MS, and UBS - has inherent conflicts with the structure: the consultants are to raise the money and be the very same people to manage the portfolio. I was shocked (and disgusted) overhearing people talk about the investments they made for their clients because those same investments yielded a premium commission for them.

Pros

With a bit of luck you can participate in large-scale IT projects. Working with globally distributed teams can be satisfying. The carrier path can be good if you are interested in management.

Cons

A lot of bureaucracy and red tape. People are too often treated as resources. The management elitysm can also sometimes get irritating. There is definitely not enough communication between teams - people tend to hide behind processes and often focus on finding an excuse not to get involved with given initiative.
