Pros

Benefits = Insurance/Flex account, 401K plus match, adequate vacation banks

Cons

Upper Management DOES NOT follow what they preach! Power of One felt promising but is a joke and no one follows! There is no Work/Life balance, just work. Even if your titled as a people manager, expected to be an IT Tech just about! Overworked!!! No support or advocates to those who aren't part of the 'good ole fellas' club. If you are not at the top of the food chain, YOU WILL BE EATEN!!

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.
