Pros

Great benefits Understanding and empathetic management in my department Kind and helpful coworkers

Cons

A needless and unnecessarily punitive push to return to work has removed virtually all remote options and made them hybrid, despite there being no true business need for it. Citi is inflexible in this regard, and it's obvious that they're only doing it to maintain a sense of control over their employees rather than out of a real business concern.

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.
