I am only hearding negative reviews about Citi. I was planning to join next week. Is there really any job security at Citi? Anything that would make me want to join Citi?

1. No job security till 2026.
2. Tremendous work pressure.

Good things:
3. Good hike and bonus if you are a performer.
4. Best transport facilities
5. Best leave policy
6. Good brand name
7. Good medical insurance

Citi never sleeps and neither they let their employees sleep.

I had the same experience and similar feelings too until layoffs announced was in April 2024. All looks good until your D day comes. FYI, I’ve worked for Citi for over 7 years, got promoted to AVP and VP within 3 years due to my performance still management didn’t even thought twice before announcing layoff. Felt betrayed and frustrated and still not recovered from the feeling.

I heard a ton of new projects came in Citi. Would you say the layoffs will happen till end of 2025 or for the whole of 2026 as well? Any idea? As a new joiner will I be eligible for hikes and bonuses immediately?

You can be fired tomorrow. There is zero job security. What new projects? There's zero strategy, even current projects can be closed in a day. They hired some consultants for project Bora Bora and now in their name they do random hiring and firing. They've made a mockery out of Citi. Please ask the HR to put a clause that you can't be fired for the next 2 years and then see the reaction.

NeedMore$:
I started QA at the company I am currently at 3 years ago. Long story short, within 4 months at the company, I was able to make a career change and step into a PM position. Without having the formal education or PM experience, only my 5 years in QA experience. When I started I made $65k and have jumped to $78k. I have seen other companies post $100k+. Annual review is tomorrow. Should I fight for more or look for more somewhere else if I lose that fight?

Hi Fellow Moms/Wives!❤️
Very taboo question.

Anyone else have a hubby with a very low sex drive? I initiate most of the time and it really makes me feel neglected. I have talked to him about it but I think we just have different views on how to feel connected? I think once every 2 weeks is harsh. I prefer 3x-4x a week but he says that is a lot. Am I crazy to expect of this?
