Pros

it's pay better than other competitior (banks) in the same position as personal banker. such as bank of america, wahington mutual, wells fargo bank. The base salary is almost the same, starting out 40k dollars. but then the commission is monthly. which give an opportunity for personal banker to get pay every month.

Cons

The managers and co-workers at some location are very up-tight, not very helpful for new employees. The training provide by the company isn't that great, but able to survivie. On the job support from management is ZERO. The managers will yell at you if you make a mistake, don't let you go to lunch, break.

Hybrid schedule right out of “training” and FT WFH privilege came much faster than expected. There are some great benefits. Job confidence as

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.
