Pros

Over the past 5 years Citizens has transformed itself to a top regional bank and one of the leading regional banks in the usage of data analytics. 1) Strong Entry Level Options with potential for growth (leadership development programs for recent college graduates) 2) Strong Mid Career Opportunities for subject matter experts 3) Supportive and encouraging leadership team with a clear path to future growth 4) Strong risk management and analytical culture

Cons

A benefit of Citizens is the balance between strong risk management and entreprenuer approach, specially in its consumer banking division which has seen it fare share of growht in the consumer lending space. That growth has resulted in hiring a combination of external talent from multiple larger companies to be able to support a material amount of organic growth, this is no bad by itself but everyone brings their own culture and not all are focused on leadership development. Make sure that you are working for someone that has a track record of promoting its team members, stay away from teams were there is no evidence of growth or internal promotions.

Pros

The pros are the benefits, the pay could be higher for all that you learn and have to go through for ten weeks. They offer tuition assistance and opportunity for upskilling and advancing in such little time and the remote flexibility is great too

Cons

Management sucks and of course they have their favorites and then they have the people they target like myself. They micromanage bad and are quick to give you an occurrence for nothing. Their systems are so slow and then they blame you for being five ten minutes late logging in. They want you to tell them when you get up to breathe, go to the bathroom and they push for you to take calls and know boatloads of info after on 3 weeks of training. What they don’t know is that I will sue for any wrong doings or discrimination and I keep records of everything
