Pros

The pay is the only reason someone should subject themselves to the horrible work environment.

Cons

There are very few promotions of women and most women who work with mostly men are treated horribly. Horrible job well done recognition. Good luck finding a fair manager to work for.

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.
