Citi Employer Reviews

Citi can be very rewarding if the employee is fortunate enough to be selected as someone's favorite. Once selected as a favorite the employee will be helped and guided down a successful career path. If the employee is not favored than no amount of effort will make a difference in career progression. In fact, promotions do not seem to be based on hard – more... work, smart work, job proficiency, product knowledge, accomplishments or any other accolade that one would think makes their resume stand out.

The company appears to have a philosophy of placing hurdles in front of employees attempting to advance. The philosophy does not allow for a win - win situation between the employee and the company. In fact, it seems Citi strives for a win - loss relationship. Guess who loses?

Unless you’re a politician type employee be prepared for constant disappointment. Be prepared to feed your bosses ego who most assuredly cares about their image far more than getting the job done. Get in, obtain experience and get out. If you want to make money at Citi leave the company and return.

My final thought is that this is a systemic problem. The people (management) that can make the necessary changes are on the winning end of this favoritism based system that can be best described as disgusting. This problem is at the core of the massive turn over rate for the company and the many other deficiencies Citi suffers from. Please remember when you are told things that give you confidence and hope that you efforts and hard work will be rewarded it is political rhetoric at best. – less

Citibank was always a fun and fast paced place to work. I learned the check processing functions from start to finish. My managers were outstanding and always willing to help in any way. They were very flexible with all employees. I had the greatest co-workers anyone could ever have and I am happy to say that a good majority of them are my friends as – more... well. The hardest part of my job was if the system went down or crashed and having to work with IT to have it fixed that would sometimes take a very long while but we always got through it. Most enjoyable was going to a job that I absolutely loved with people that I loved working with. – less

I worked for Citi Mortgage until 2007 when they decided to close their business in Southern California.

Citi has great compensation and benefits! This is a great place to work if you are starting out in entry level work.

Great co-workers, outstanding benefits. However, poor compensation and growth within the company.

nice environment
great team
i enjoyed working there
nice management to work with

Top class place to develop a career. Excellent opportunities to learn new and diverse skill in the Investment and Consumer banking as well as technology. Compensation is one of the best in the industry.

A typical day at work is about providing the best customer experience, resolve the problem in one contact and introduce the customer to financial solutions or alternatives and then replicate it in every contact.
I've learned better customer service skills and problem solving skills, also to manage my time better, that networking is incredibly important.
Helping – more... other associates is very important, the better the relationships are with your co-workers the better your network is, also the better chance you have to be helped when you needed, everybody can learn from other peers experiences, that only enriches what you can do for your customer.
The hardest part of the job I would say was when I was just not able to save a customer because we didn't resolve the problems in a timely matter.
The most enjoyable part of my job is when I know I did a good job in a call, specially when it was something complicated, maybe something that other people tried to resolve before and were not able to but that day I was.. brings a smile to my face. – less

Financial analysis of new and existing customers.
Monitoring of terms and conditions of commercial loans.
Adequate training for the review and analysis of commercial loans.

Management is very good. As long as you are a hard worker...management will know that! Team mates and manager are great. People are very friendly. Cafeteria is very nice. Fast paced environment.

I loved working at Citibank for over 8 years and met a lot of awesome people of whom I became close to. Citibank was always willing to work with my schedule in Customer Service for school and allowed me to make up time if I needed to miss work. I mainly left Citibank because I had an hr commute one way, every day and wanted to find something closer – more... to home. – less

* Collected debt by phone on accounts passed due
learn how to deal with conflicts in a postive way

A typical work day is answering incoming HR related inquiries.

I was responsible for business development for western NC. I used my years of experience and many contacts to increase the visibility of Citi Financial Wholesale Mortgage products in the Western NC region. After accounts were set up and their personnel trained I turned the accounts over to an account executive who I then supervised.

Did personal and real estate loans for people. I also did collections and I work as a manager trainer.

typical work day was sometimes busy. did day to day tickets and projects, had a good relationship with co-worker and supervisor.

THE JOB ITSELF IS VERY EASY. YOU COME IN DO YOUR WORK AND LEAVE. IT'S NOT LIKE SOME PLACES WHERE YOUR JOB FOLLOWS YOU HOME.
