Very difficult place to work. Management sorely lacking.

Pros: benefits
Cons: poor management
Taking inbound collection calls, providing financial advice to card members delinquent on their accounts. Had no problems with the calls, it was management that was difficult to work for.

Worked for 4 financial advisors
Sr. Client Service Associate (Former Employee), Bradenton, FL –
Pros: love the office and the manager
Cons: branch was closed due to merger
Most of my day would be talking to clients and trying to keep them happy. I would have to call Mutual Fund and Annuity companies. I did mail merge letters and any type of correspondence needed. I would make sure that all copies being mailed out were in compliance approval.

Diverse Labor Force and Creative Products
Officer (Former Employee), Northeast Region –
Pros: salary and diversity.
Cons: dated technology.
A typical work day is very long with little down time. "Citi never sleeps" is an accurate description of the staff's hours.

I learned how to adapt quickly and efficiently.

Management is still a work in progress from the pre-2008 Financial Crisis, but valiant efforts are being made to re-vamp from top down.

The hardest part of the job was the dated – more...  technology. The products are top notch and very competitive, but the technology infrastructure needs improving.

The most enjoyable part of the job is the salary and the co-workers. – less

Very aggressive and fast paced place to work.
Senior Account Executive (Former Employee), Chesapeake, VA –
Pros: good pay
Colleges can be very cut throat and aggressive. Management seemed to be all about money. The core values didn't support management sales style. All government regulations were closely followed.

Pros: great team, good work environment, professionalism.
Cons: career growth possibilities very limited, compensation not up-to the industry standards
• Although I had a what could be categorized as rocky start with Citi.

• Learned to stay calm and taking stock of production outage situations and enabling the team to work on providing a service level with 99.99995% up-time. – less

The people at this company are the most enjoyable part of the job. The supervisors always made themselves available for training or to ask any questions. My co-workers were very "lively" individuals with awesome personalities and made coming to work feel like a vacation.

A typical day consists of speaking to customers about their delinquent personal loans and offering solutions to bringing the account current.
Personal Loans Collector (Current Employee), Irving, TX –
Pros: the dress code is very casual, however, i maintain professionalism at all times.

Productive work place and great co-workers
Account Manager (Former Employee), Tempe, AZ –
Pros: breaks, sometimes end of month lunch
I tried to plan for the week and leave time for the day to day unexpected accurances.
I learned to make more calls in less time while satisfying the home-
owner. Each call adds to my experience of excellent customer
service.
Management and co-workers were always there to help each other.
The hardest part of the job would have been not being able to – more...  get
the customer on the phone.
The most enjoyable part of the job is knowing you left the customer
satisfied and helping them towards modifying their home loans
which alleviated their stress. – less

Random review of calls by customer service agents.
Quality Assurance Analyst (Former Employee), San Antonio, TX –
Pros: gym and cafeteria.
Cons: no benefits.
Reviewed a team of 20 to 40 agents, all with different levels of experience and job duties. Each call to be reviewed could be short as one to two minutes or 15 minutes long. Each call is monitored for customer service, efficiency, and correct resolution. Agents must use the correct format when answering the phone and when ending the call. Agents are – more...  rated by the score I give them. As a Quality Assurance Agent you must be an expert in the applications and tools the agent is using plus an expert in Customer Service methods. I learned to really listen and analyze tone, delivery, and variations in the manner agents deliver advice and assistance. The hardest part of the job was being deemed as the enemy by your fellow customer service agents or that you didn't work as hard as them, when in fact you worked harder, the burden of proof was up to you. This where experience, research, and knowledge came to play. My fellow co-workers were very knowledgeable and cordial; they never hesitated in helping out. – less

Ever changing fast paced global environment..
Operations Support Intermediate Analyst (Former Employee), New Castle, DE –
I get the rare opportunity of changing not only the way we operate as a business from an operations "process" perspective, but I also get the opportunity to strategically change the behavior of the operations support teams as well. This changes all with the interest of the client experience in mind.

In an environment where the process is global in – more...  nature and complexity, with low personnel staff morale, the implementation of such a drastic change can make for a challening task. It is the objective for targeting improved client satisfication, through an operations functional transformation, that drives my committment to the success of the program. – less
