friendly atmosphere - most people are great to work and chat with great office locations decent facilities (gym, health center, good view) internal mobility made easy good benefits - free dinner if you stay late, free admission to museums, discounts, training

Cons

good employees are often incentivized to leave because of strict rules that limit compensation many different systems interacting with one another but owned by teams that do not work together, hard to figure out what's technically going on

Cons

Training was a waste of Citi’s money and a train wreck. Facilitator was all over the place. Normally there’s a flow to training, there was no flow and it was all over the place. OJT felt like sinking or swimming.
