Nothing like Jane.
I’ve been at two other major companies before coming to Citi. I also network quite a bit outside of Citi. After being here for quite a while and listening, watching and observing, I can honestly say I have never ever seen or heard of a CEO who is as... — read more
Terminations In Order to Not Pay Severance.
Hearing that Citi is going to start terminating employees due to performance in order to not have to pay incentive. Are they going to "manufacture" 3-3 rated employees into 3-4, 4-4 etc.? Do you think departments are being given a directive/goal... — read more

Company culture is not words on your website or posters on a wall. It’s how your people feel on Sunday night.
This rings so very true on Monday when all you hear from everyone is. “Well, I’m here” I wonder if this ever resonates when surveys go out about the company culture, whatever that is these days.
TTS Operations aka Wolf of Wall Street
I can't with the newer big dogs they brought in from Goldman in TTS Operations over the past year, slowly turning the org into a 'new' old boys club. How did we manage before these ball busters came along, ba----g their chests and pointing out the... — read more

March layoff non-working period
Is anyone on a 90 day non working period? I see most people were on 60 days but wondering if there are any with longer nw periods and the reasoning behind it. Thanks.
I’ve noticed a pattern.
So a non-US holiday roles around and you get people who take off. Ok, makes sense. “Banking holiday over here in EMEA, taking off, no choice, its happening.” Sure, why not. A US holiday roles around, banking or not, and you get… panic from... — read more

Citi is managed badly (not news, but I am angry about it anyway)
So how can we expect that reorg/cuts will be managed well when done by some people who led us into this mess in the first place? We’ve been going through a lot of stress, anxiety, chaos with teams and management of workload, all with no end in sight... — read more

Citi, a 6. Faith in management a 4.
Out of all the companies I’ve worked for, Citi is not the worse. It’s not the best either. In a scale of 1-10, I’d give Citi a solid 6. On faith in management, I’d give them a 4, which is easy to understand. The emails from management vs. the... — read more
Why there is no transparency? Why managers always tries make fools their team?
Why people are so unethical here?
Deviating from the purpose
There are many posts dedicated to venting frustration. I can certainly understand as to why. I can confirm that at large portion of the posts, I’ve seen either 1st, 2nd, or 3rd hand. While working at Citi and navigating all that is…”Citi”….it is... — read more
