Pros

Working in Tech Finance, they are really big on work-life balance. It is flexible and you do learn a lot.

Cons

Management is condecending and they are not as sharp as you expect upper management to be. You expect a lot of communication and mentoring from a company of this size but there is NONE. A lot of politics involved in this organization and you can tell that at Citi a lot of the things that happen are based on favoritsm and who knows who.

Pros

Job security and large company benefits. They have 401k, dental, medical, and vision benefits. I'm not complaining about my salary either, considering the amount of effort and time i'm putting in my position. I haven't been laid off yet, which is a plus to being in back office.

Cons

Poor leadership, communication, and career advancement. There's this wall that exists between me and my manager, and I absolutely hate it. He's not personal at all, and I wish he could be more supportive and caring towards me. I feel like another ant in this huge company, and sometimes I wish it can be a little smaller with all the benefits still there.

Pros

Large organization with many different career paths. Decent benefits. Flexible work schedules (but only to accommodate all of the nights/weekends/holidays you'll be working). Depending on your management, they may recognize you for going above and beyond...

Cons

Long hours. Poor middle and senior management. Very few leaders in the right positions. Hiring under qualified individuals for critical positions, which leads to additional responsibilities for those with ability. No understanding of project scoping... If you loose resources and/or new initiative come on line, managers must convey those circumstances to the customers and reset expectations... Otherwise, people leave in droves.... Management gets too wrapped up in politics, which causes delays and issues with projects...
