Pros

There was a good work/life balance in the division I was in. Not all areas of Citigroup have this balance, although they do try to accomodate people where they can. Working at Citigroup teaches you to deal with bureaucracy and find your way through a maze of disconnected information to get an answer. While this is also a downside of Citi, it can help turn a negative (bureacracy) into a positive.

Cons

Bureaucracy. Lack of consistent, knowledgeable leadership. Very political.

Pros

Great benefits (PTO, healthcare, etc.) for FTEs

Cons

Everything else - Carousel of management changes - Vague and ever-changing role/job descriptions and associated metrics - The constant feeling that we're all about to be laid off but must "prove" our value in the meantime
