Pros

While somewhat controversial, perhaps one of the best parts of working in Citi's sales & trading division is the rotational analyst program. Two rotations of one year each across desks/roles provides a diverse experience with ample opportunity to join as associate.

Cons

One concern held by people within/about the firm is that the risk taking appetite/culture can be a bit limited

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.
