Pros

One of the biggest and prestigious global firm. Great internal mobility (both global and countrywide) to advance your career and opportunity to try out different areas/groups without having to switch firms. Relatively a much better work life balance compared to other financial firms. Good people, encouragement to volunteer, diversity etc. Benefits especially healthcare may not be as good as the jersey pharma firms but they are comparable to financial firms in the NY metro area.

Cons

Due to the diversified portfolio of business you don't get the upside in a bull market as you would working for a pure IB. At the same time it is better to be diversified in the current environment.

Pros

Working at Citigroup provides employees with great experience in the financial services field. It is a great item for one's resume and possesses a measure of prestige. Benefits are good. Tuition reimbursement and 401k contribution matching are examples of employee incentives.

Cons

It is a difficult place to get into and once in the door, advancement is extremely difficult. Professionalism is very important so the atmosphere isn't very relaxed.

Pros

Rewards dynamic personalities. Citigroup's overall market presence means you get to work on interesting deals & the organisation has lots of resources (if you know where to look).

Cons

Bureaucracy too big. Success at the highest levels requires organisational perceptiveness which is hard to learn if you don't naturally have it.
