Pros

good location, good canteen, nice coffee worth for the 2euros each time. flexible WHF

Cons

bad management, unfortunately, I have experienced the worst managers twice for the same team, one lousy manager left and then was replaced with one even worse. it could be a better career experience if some decent manager is taking the position. bad management will only show and lead the bad example to the team, and the toxic ball is rolling.

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.
