Why is the hiring process so long?

Is it because of the pandemic? I have submitted applications, gone on several interviews and with several companies and it takes months to hear back from anyone if you're even going to the second round!

Sick Time

Has anyones manager told them that their unit does not take sick time and you should instead go to the Doctor on the weekend or after work? Also has anyone manager told them if you’re remote and feeling sick you should still work because you’re not... — read more 

The beatings will commence until moral improves.

Corporate demand of blind loyalty no matter how bad you’re treated or overworked you are, is becoming a dying dinosaur. I’ve always thought it was weird that you are so bought into the corp buzz word rhetoric that “this is the best place ever to be... — read more 

The Great Burnout

From NYT, links below: At Citi, according to New York magazine, an analyst typed “I hate this job, I hate this bank, I want to jump out the window” in a chat, prompting human resources to check on his mental health. “This is a consensus opinion,”... — read more

I Though It Was Me

To all the Citi folks who are on here, THANK YOU for sharing your stories and exposing the truth. Coming into Citi as a young person, I was emotionally hazed by my entire department and I thought it was because I was doing something wrong. I took the... — read more

How much overwork can one person handle?

I guess Citi is counting on employees being insecure, hesitant, and reluctant to start over. Whenever someone leaves, I get more and more work. I'm on the verge of giving notice. My question is how overwhelmed with work are you? How big is your... — read more

Citi can't expect loyalty from us

Loyalty is earned not demanded. Company loyalty went out the window long long ago. Since we are all treated as a commodity, an asset to be traded or discarded at will for any or no reason, then my loyalty is only as good as my last paycheck. Earn... — read more

Going back to the office?

I for one, do not plan to return as long as COVID is still bad enough that we have to wear masks and test 3 times a week. Where do they come up with these dates anyway? I'd rather face disciplinary action than an intubation. And yes, I am vaxed... — read more

I did not expect such a reaction

I can no longer stand this place and the lack of respect I experience here daily so I gave notice. Just a few more days to endure here. Honestly, I didn't expect any reaction, I thought that Citi didn't care who left, but it wasn't like that. The... — read more

I deserve respect

I don't expect the company to care about me, I don't live in a delusion that we're all "one big, happy family." What I do expect is to be treated with respect. To be paid adequately for the work I provide and to be treated like a human being by my... — read more

Citi is a dump

Either you don't know what you don't know, but open your eyes people, Citi is a horrendous laggard of a company that should have been allowed to fail in 2008. Such a dysfunctional mess of a company. Stay clear of this incompetence haven.

Downtrodden and leaving

I’ve got a ton of friends spanning all sectors. From talking to them and comparing to Citi, I’ve never heard of such a company as Citi that is so willing to over zealously marginalize BAU efforts. What I find funny is that “if you don’t make money... — read more

No vision, no future

I may be wrong, but it seems to me that the leadership has no vision at all. The future will look very different from today, but not in a good way. Precisely because a clear plan for the future is lacking. Maybe it's better not to think about the... — read more

How long does it take to get hired at Citi?

Interviewed last week and the week before for two different positions. The status of my application just says business review. They're always hiring here, but how long does it take?

Multi-directional indecisiveness, recipe for success?

Expand globally, that’s the ticket and shrink the UK offices. Nope sell it off some of our global assets and revamp and expand the UK offices, that’s the way to go. It’s this back and forth decisions that instills skepticism about our judgement. — read more

Everyone is worried for nothing

Forget making, marketing and selling the widgets, just focus primarily on the ESG clout and everything will just all work out. The revenue will just start rolling in and the stock will rise. If it doesn’t work this year, then give it another year... — read more

That's my raise. I can take a hint. I'll be out of here within three months.

Let's Pretend We Didn't See It Coming?

Is this another case of "let's pretend we didn't see it coming"? I took a look at the P/E graphs and it certainly looks like we are headed into dangerous territory--along with reduced resources and climate chaos. But it's hard figuring out how to... — read more

How is it now?

Former employee here. Are any groups feeling the affects of the terminations due to vaccine mandates? I saw some pretty high-profile names that are now gone. Is Citi in a downward spiral yet?

A tipping point is reached it seems….

There comes a time when there’s a paradigm shift and instead of the employees proving themselves to the company, its the company that needs to start proving itself to the employees. This is where Citi is right now.

This is your average workplace

I don't know what you people expect but if you think Citi is a horrible, terrible, awful work environment then you're in for a major and not-so-pleasant surprise when you leave. Nearly all the banks have the same issues to a varying degree. If you're... — read more

Back into the office vs inflation

What timing. Being able to work from home you saved money on gas, food, dry cleaning and even daycare. Now going back into the office those expenditures come back into our lives. So now factor in inflation. Inflation is up and can be seen... — read more 

I applied and going to an interview. Leaving Chase

So, I hate working at Chase. Worst work environment ever! I got mentally sick and even was short-term leave due to mental exhaustion. I applied to Citibank and went to my first interview. Does anyone here have the same path? Did you regret it? Does... — read more

How was your raise?

I had high hopes for my annual review. My manager went on and on about how valuable I was to the team. For all of my long hours and picking up the slack of my co-workers, I received a 2.5% raise. Far, far less than last year. Bummed.

I hope they find a solution

Some positions haven't been replaced for months after the employees left. That is why we are all overwhelmed. What is personally worrying to me is that I know for sure that several more colleagues will leave next month. These are people whom it is... — read more

Chaos with a side of direction please….

The company gave away $893 million to the wrong company. The company was fined $400 million for the mistake as well. Not very good since we are in the business of managing money. The company’s net income dropped 26%. We are selling off parts of... — read more

Quite a conundrum

SCOTUS blocks Biden vaccine mandate, which is what Citi was using as the basis for their vaccine mandate. Interested what those of you who got the vaccine to save your job, are feeling now. I think I'd be a little bit pi---d.

Hey, Citi…..

Remote vs Office work

For me I can go either way. I enjoy the work from home but have no issue going into the office either. What I don’t understand is the drive or urgency to bring people back into the office if they don’t need to be there. If things are working just as... — read more
