Toxic political work environment - Senior Manager Citi Employee Review

I worked in Citi for a few years. The environment is Dublin is highly political. Junior employees are not treated well - work/life balance doesn't exist. I saw many examples of people being promoted because of who they knew, not because of their ability. Many people are stuck in their current positions with no career prospects internally. Citi works hard to portray a positive image externally, but that's all it is - an image.
