Pros

Benefits are very good Easy and normal to work remote Facilities are modern and clean Chance to learn the latest technologies

Cons

Because its a bank, security and auditing are more important than making sure we can backup/restore the computer systems. This is evident in the amount of paperwork needed to get anything done. Often given projects to deliver that are late before the paperwork was started which means everything gets escalated.

Pros

Hybrid schedule right out of “training” and FT WFH privilege came much faster than expected. There are some great benefits. Job confidence as

Cons

Training was a waste of Citi’s money and a train wreck. Facilitator was all over the place. Normally there’s a flow to training, there was no flow and it was all over the place. OJT felt like sinking or swimming.
