Citibank

Anyone working at Citibank? How's the experience been? How's the culture? Any insight in comparison to other banks would be helpful too.#citibank

You need to specify which group within Citi

It will be business operations, also what is the WFH policy?

Citibank LBpa80 Apr 15, 2021

WFH depends on the group but the new CEO has said for most employees, 3 days in office / 2 days at home.

I see a lot of comments which indicate C1> chase>Citi in terms of culture(esp tech and analytics). Is there any truth in this?

Citibank sableye Apr 15, 2021

the analytics org is a shitshow. Iโ€™m a PM โ€” itโ€™s just a lot of meetings and governance red tape. but there are some cool projects (google plex). cant say for other places but they never struck me as any different

Citi is a typical big bank. Not better not worse. A lot depends on the team. But still, youโ€™ll see bunch of nonsense as with any big organization. Red tape, politics etc.

Citibank FllO80 Apr 15, 2021

It all depends on what team you are in. But expect the typical bank set up.

Any ideas on comp range for avps?

Citibank yamihere2 Apr 15, 2021

Lol I would guess 60k in ops in Tampa to 350k in M&A so the title doesn't tell you much

Generally, bad legacy system infrastructure and reference data set up, disorganised processes, technology modernisation is super slow, just feels messy in general and people donโ€™t challenge the old process and no sufficient support for new joiners to challenge either.

I do not understand why people are so focused on culture. Itโ€™s a bank. They will throw you under the bus when needed and lay you off whenever they want. If you want great culture; empowerment; great leaders etc, be your own boss and work for yourself.
