Pros

- "Faux" company prestige by commoners - Employees are overpaid compared to competitors, thus lazy

Cons

- MAJOR: Constant layoffs of back office support staff - Constant hiring of Wells Fargo "corrupt" management - All associates end up doing job duties of corrupt management hired from Wells Fargo - Arrogant or inept mid-management - Backstabbing is "team culture" the Citi way - Compensation is pennies on the dollar -

Pros

Hybrid schedule, supportive managers, opportunities

Cons

Once you’re in, comp basically plateaus. Layoffs are happening across the board, which tends to be the full-time culture of citi. The vibe is very much “run lean” until something actually breaks, and only then consider adding headcount. You have to be intentional about protecting your work-life balance, because the implicit expectation is that you’re always on—24/7, 365—without the support of a properly staffed team.
