Pros

Better than no paycheck if you don't have another option.

Cons

Everything. When you see the company from the inside, it's startling--laborious, senseless processes, dumb employees everywhere who are protected for years, systems which have to be way behind every competitor (no matter the noise management makes about their progess).

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.
