    What’s it like working at Citigroup?

    AI summary of recent reviews

    Citigroup offers numerous advantages to its employees, including comprehensive benefits packages with excellent medical coverage and competitive salaries. The company provides hybrid work arrangements and maintains a positive multicultural work environment. Employees appreciate the well-structured career progression with clear promotion criteria, and many highlight the supportive nature of their colleagues.

    However, employees should be prepared for certain workplace demands. The work-life balance can be challenging, particularly during peak periods, and some departments experience high workloads. There are also some structural considerations, such as a two-year waiting period for internal transfers and technology systems that could benefit from updates.

    Citi NEVER Sleeps
    The good thingsBenefits are fantastic. Hybrid arrangement. Food court has amazing spread of food. Easy access for lrt and mrt commuters. Super high pay for some team members.
    The challengesNO LIFE, WORK only. Expect motto 'Citi never sleeps' to be at its worst. Many Malaysians are let go and difficult to redeploy as the bosses are mainly of other nationalities. Some teams are majority of 1 nationality or race only to ensure easy communication between themselves. Most staff got high bp and insomnia even though in their early 30s.
