What do you think is a better pick VP Market risk manager at Barclays vs VP risk model governance at Citi. Similar base salary. On paper Barclays role seems much more interesting. How would you rate barclays culture vs Citi?

I personally like the culture at Barclays better. After working at both, I felt like I have more of a work/life balance at Barclays, I get along well with my co-workers, and I feel supported by other management. To me, that's worth more than the pay because I'm not as stressed out as I was at Citi and I expect that I'll be with Barclays much longer.

Thanks, very helpful. My impression was the same that culture at barclays is better.

In terms of company culture, I'll go for Barclays. The people are great as well as the management.

I have heard really good things about Citi and their wlb as well.

Coming from someone who worked at both as well (at CITI now) do your self a favor and do not come to CITI this place sucks.

Market risk and model governance are quite different areas... I don't know anything about the culture at the two companies but I can talk about both roles as I have experience in both. Feel free to let me know if you have any questions.
