Pros

The benefits and flex time -- the management for the most part cares about the people, however, the communication throughout Citi is very archaic.

Cons

Very little chance of advancement and we are not seeing much of Pandit throughout all this turmoil. Where is the leadership? I believe that there are those that want to see the company survive and it will, but a lot of us feel there is a lack of true leadership in this company. We need someone strong. Vikram is not the man, or to date has not shown this to be.

Pros

There are a lot of opportunities to work in different areas of the company and learn new skills due to the large size and scale of Citigroup.

Cons

Due to the large size and complexity of the organization, it is hard to feel like you matter to senior management. Often times, it is difficult to get changes and improvements made due to the substantial layers of management and the amount of bureacracy involved within the company.

Pros

Good brand name, better compensation then most of the local banks, friendly worker environment, steady workplace if you like, in-house trainings. Also it is easier to find jobs in market after getting labeled as a "previous employee of Citibank". Although the group got smaller, currently it is reorganizing itself, so the change yields to new opportunities to show yourself and go further. If you are interested in a career in banking & finance, Citigroup provides a solid name and opportunities for the ones who wants further in area...

Cons

less opportunity to move further, bigger than it should be, senior managements failures in decisions, unnecessary long bureaucracy, rivalry for power between departments (which encumbers the speed of process), unnecessary outsourcing, not enough planning
