Pros

This place will keep you busy. You work with folks from all around the globe. Sodas and beer in the fridge.

Cons

This place will keep you busy. IT upper management will bow down to business and push changes and releases through that will break the environment at all hours of the day. On top of that the environment is heavily outdated. There is no time left to work on upgrades or new technology as you are too busy keeping the lights on and trying to explain the unexplainable on the 100th RCA call. At year end you will receive no raise and no bonus because you weren't able to implement these upgrades or new technologies. On top of that you can worry about your job as there are layoffs every other year and outsourcing to backfill.

Dear Former Employee: Thank you for your feedback. The nature of the work for the IT group at Citco is to support the business. Our goal is to provide a high level of customer service to our customers. That being said, we have and continue to work on system upgrades that align with the needs of our clients in and outside the organization. Unfortunately, this is not a process that can be completed overnight. We appreciate the patience and support of all our staff during this time of transition. We rely on employees, just as yourself, who have and do "keep the lights on" while we push forward. As for your advise, we have heard the suggestions from our staff regarding our review process. Changes have begun on this front, which will be reflected starting year end 2017. Again, thank you for your comments. Regional US HR Business Partner

Pros

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.
