Pros

Brand recognition, training, resources, facilities

Cons

Smith Barney definitely suffers from a bit of identity crisis being involved with such a large organization. There are definite redundancies when it comes to wealth management within Citi. This causes a bit of internal competition in some ways. Marketing compliance was an absolute beast to deal with as well.

Pros

Benefits and time off are definitely a plus, very accommodating.

Cons

Great working environment, but you need to be co cern every year when cuts hit. They rate you average if they plan on cutting you and it seems like the cuts are based higher on the older employees that have many years with the company. Growth was non existing, every year it was senior managers are not allowing any promotions even to 2 rating employees for many years.
