Pros

The work is interesting and their is always room for improvement. The days fly by because their is always plently of work to do. Everyday is different, twists and subjective decisions make you stay on your toes.

Cons

There is a disconnect between management and what lower us lower level peons are doing. The nature of the division forces 300+ people to make subjective evaluations. Continuity and objectives need to be unified. Or providing continuing training while also increasing analyst freedom.

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.
