Pros

Citi has is such a large, global company that the possibilities are endless when it comes to advancing your career. There are many different ways to learn about each specific area of the business and this prepares you for your next role or even your next company. Compensation package is generally strong but just know that pay grades can vary widely, so make sure you ask about the low, mid and high points of salary ranges.

Cons

Again, Citi is large, so if you are working in a project management or relationship manager role that has a global or even regional impact, moving the needle on success can be difficult. Atmosphere can still be very political and traditional in some lines of business.

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.
