Good place to start career.
Opportunity to meet different people
Well mix of both young and experienced people
Free drinks

Cons
Very long hours
Pay is very low. Company will only pay what they are legally required to pay which does not have any correlation with the market.
Most senior or experienced people quit because of pay.

Dear Former Colleague - Thanks for your feedback. We have taken the opportunity in many of these reviews to highlight the positives of the Citco work experience and exposure in the Halifax office as well as others. Management is actively looking at the work load, working hours and resources to bring more balance to that ratio. In regards to your comments about pay - we would remind staff that Total Compensation at Citco is more than base salary. In addition to OT pay and discretionary bonus, we offer a generous benefits package and leave policies. Additionally there are other benefits including a Tuition Reimbursement policy for supporting employees pursuing such designations as a CPA or CFA.
Thank you for the 5 star review,
It is great see you experiencing our work culture and the camaraderie you have with your colleagues.
We would also encourage you to explore more internal communication channels available to you to address your specific concerns.
Thank you for sharing comments and for the 5 star review!
Its best to work here for a few years and gain experience elsewhere.
Cons
Company went from 2 days on-site to now 3 days on-site, i dont mind it but this company has low morale and all the employees are sick of this place now. If you want a high salary but no opportunity to advance this is the place for you.
80% of the company is senior level and no room for growth or promotional opportunities.
