Work/life balance Unfair pressure from Directors

Pros

Work life balance is encouraged

Cons

Limited internal mobility and opportunities

Pros

Generally decent starting salaries. Much-needed diversity initiatives are active.

Cons

Intensely bureaucratic, nearly impossible to get anything done. Assurances made by management mean very little, and can and do change. Improvement tasks and projects are generally tick-box exercises to use as proof for bonuses, rather than any real intention to improve process. Toxic work environment - cliques and gossip are the norm. Compensation process pits teammates against one another on a local, regional, and global level. Despite active and vocal diversity initiatives, open sexism acknowledged and accepted by management. Suicide 'jokes' a firm part of the department 'banter'. Concerns about consistently excessive stress levels dismissed as 'normal' for tech/production support. Extremely high turnover. This puts undue pressure on the people who choose to stay - teams are understaffed and stretched to breaking point in many instances. Despite vocal mental health initiatives, your wellbeing is not considered a priority. No work-life balance. Leaving on-time is frowned upon, and you won't be thanked for working late.

Pros

Collaborative culture, opportunities for training and development, supportive management, good work life balance

Cons

Not many opportunities to explore conferences and training outside of Citi.

Pros

work life balance in general

Cons

hard to get promoted in the past years
