My director told me they don't know whether I would be laid off or not because the decision is not based on them. Was told announcements will go out next week. What about employees with a low performance rating? Will they be impacted?
How’s that working for you?
Jane is clearly out of her depth. She had\has no vision. She was counting on the woke mentality to turn a profit and it did not work. As one poster put it: DEI (diversity, equality and inclusion) is great but its not a huge selling point. The... — read more

January Layoffs in NY are - which levels, teams notified so far? Please share
Anyone heard about staff notified in NY area? If so, which department and level?
Heavy hitters will be leaving.
Many people out there put in very long hours, sacrificed weekend and for nothing as shown by the bonus and raises you’ll not be getting. Yes, decision makers who got us to this point will get theirs but not you, no certainly not you. Oh sure, you... — read more

Citi promotions question
Are there more than one promotion cycle at Citi (other than the Jan one)? Is my manager lying when he is saying that if I missed the promotion this Jan I will have to wait until the next one? Because I can see people being promoted mid-year as well... — read more
Citi promotions question
How many promotions cycles are there at Citi per year? In normal banks, there is only one (usually December/January) for everyone below MD, and a separate round in the spring for MDs. But at Citi I noticed people getting promoted off-cycle/throughout... — read more
What is wrong with Citi's obsession with abbreviations...
What does STL mean? And in general, why do everyone at Citi use non-standard abbreviations in casual conversations as if other people should know what they mean? Also, please use NA, there is no such thing as NAM region anywhere else in the corporate... — read more

20K
How is that even possible? How can the ELT sleep at night knowing they plan to ruin 20K lives - plus their families' lives? This is so excessive that I have no words for it. Everybody who was involved in this decision should feel ashamed of... — read more
Layoff started
It has begun
I swear they're trying to get us to quit
I have no other explanation for why this is being handled so poorly.
Layoff accouncements includes HR
Hi, Does the layoff announcements include your director and HR? Or is it your director alone?
Terminations thread for Risk . . .
Anyone know of any MDs or DIRs who were axed in Risk?
Plenty of people got raises, bonuses and promotion news today. Some were also terminated. This is what we chose working in financial services.
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.
Can anyone explain how it a conversation goes regarding bonuses and/or other compensation changes today?
The title says it all. What is to be discussed?
How can people think about bonuses right now?
All I can think about is whether I'll still have my job once the layoffs are done. I couldn't care less about bonuses or raises right now. I'm not saying it's irrelevant, it's just not something I can focus on when I don't even know if I'll have a... — read more

Better stay at Citi while you can and build your skill set
Think long and hard about your careers. Especially anyone in a BAU function (non revenue-generators). AI is going to put most of us out of a job, in the not too distant future. Investors, companies, business owners......they all want the next best... — read more
What was written vs what was implied vs what was said vs what was reported vs what was emailed etc…
The end result is the same, you can’t trust anything said from upper management when it comes to layoff numbers and timelines. Its a game and they are laughing at you right now trying to figure out what is happening and when and to how many and to... — read more

This company is run by Fools
This company is run by fools who don't know Business and Technology. Letting go people will just save some money. But its not going to fix everything. What is missing here ? Real Technical Architect Real Business Strategist
Finally some specific literature/numbers.. Tired of hearing vague bs from leadership
The 5,000 "mainly managerial" job cuts are happening fast. Fraser said Citi's 12,000 managers have already been reduced to 10,800 as four layers were removed in three phases that began late last year. Cutting the fifth and final layer could seemingly... — read more

Does this affect Cards/retail call centers working remotely?
Currently employed in a specialized dept taking calls. I work from home. I don't see much on this board about the call center, but more so the actual bank. Anyone on the phones let go?
Giving up on expertise
You know what p–s me off the most? We are disposable. Fine. We are usually the first budget line to go when there are cost cuts or reorg. Fine. But then nobody should expect us to bring expertise to a job. I haven’t had a feeling that I had learned... — read more

Will it start?
Citi no compete clause.
So Citi has a no compete clause to where you can’t work for vendor’s that Citi partners with for 1 year after being let go. The main problem with this is that Citi partners with everyone. Microsoft, Dell, vmware, Cisco, Veritas, Crowdstrike... — read more
No, you are not safe
No matter what your role is or which level you are, at Citi, you are disposable or replaceable for whatever reason at any time. If you have somehow managed to convince yourself you're safe, think again. I'm not saying this to be mean, I just don't... — read more
