Partner Started This Week Only to Walk By Those Being Laid Off
My partner literally just started at Citi as part of the wealth division within the past few weeks. As they were getting their badges and other new hire stuff, others were turning in theirs due to being laid off. Not the most re-assuring for people... — read more
Layoffs today in the business control teams
Which USCC COO Business Control teams had impacts today?
Healthcare after layoff
ACA (Obamacare) is most expensive. The Citi retirement plan is second and ironically COBRA is cheapest (at $2,100 per month for my wife and I). I will turn 65 during the 18 month COBRA period. So, I thinking that is the best option (COBRA then... — read more

Can someone please put so.e light when will receive the severance money for someone let go in March? I don't understand can't they just have a process or automated update? There is no response even if you write to HR..
Why is Nawani's team allowed to travel international
From London to New York on business class for frivolous reasons that achieves nothing substantial? Especially when Citi has laid off so many people? If this person is required to be in new York, why wasn't he made to relocate to let go and someone... — read more
H1Bs firdt
Citi tampa analytics and data science teams keeps promoting only H1B folks and stalls American workers and permanent residents. Hope the America first movement move to CITI Tampa as well.
Layoffs due to AI?
So we got told that AI will be doing some of our work, the “easy cases”. I know Tampa will be seeing layoffs this year, anyone got insight if AML will be affected? They’re upping our pace in June due to an uptick in workload

The layoffs broke something
Work just does not happen anymore. Every morning brings a new set of priorities and by afternoon they have changed again. Projects get announced and then abandoned before anyone finishes the first task. People vanish from the org chart overnight with... — read more
Typical Citi - can't get anything to work
I had an American Airlines card from Barclays. Two days back, Barclays switched off my account saying i should deal with Citi now via landingatciti.com. Of course the website doesn't work. I would have been shocked if it did. Then Citi sends an email... — read more
Control the controllables
Layoffs in 2026 are inevitable and I can’t help but chuckle when people come onto this board to whinge about more layoffs are coming. Are layoffs stressful? Absolutely. No one is denying that. One thing you can do is change your mindset. Control... — read more
When you leave, who can read your emails?
I was laid off a couple of month's ago. Out of curiosity, I sent a test email to my old address to see what happened. There was no bounce back reply from the server. Does that mean my mailbox is still active and someone like my old boss has control... — read more
SVP or D level
I wish I would have been in SVP or D level to not get axed. So far what I have seen only these levels are in decision panel and only vp avp getting cut. Which makes no sense though because they again hire new resources for those positions once the... — read more
My luck might be running out
I've survived eight layoffs over the years, but I've got a bad feeling about the next one. Judging by my manager's behavior that suddenly shifted completely, I think my streak is about to end. I was never as worried about cuts as I am right now.
Return Equipment
Just resigned from my position here in the U.S. How do I go about returning my laptop and equipment? No direction has been provided by my manager - will I get a box in the mail?
Next wave
June 10th is the next wave for Tampa and NY.
There is a hidden cost to reorgs that I do not think gets talked about enough
Every time leadership reshuffles the org chart, employees do not feel alignment. They feel a wave of anxiety that another round of layoffs is coming. That feeling does not disappear after the new chart is published. It settles into the background and... — read more
Citi rto

Companies stopping 401!!
Many companies are stopping multiple benefits.
AVP to SVP?
Can people go from AVP to SVP? Or stories that this has been done?
Citi will always be technically behind so long as other banks (Wells F, JPM, PNC) are willing to pay more.
Oh sure, Citi pull out what they think is a big win by luring in some major director from other banks here and there. They make sure that hits the headlines but as you can see, they don’t stay very long. Its a money shell game. These guys move... — read more

Can somebody explain this pattern to me?
I've been through a few layoff rounds now and I've started tracking who goes. The pattern makes no sense. Hard workers, people with great reviews, people who consistently deliver get cut. People who coast, who hide in meetings, who produce almost... — read more

David Griffith, the CTO, is the new AI head
Replacing Shobith Varshney. Not sure how the move is going to work itself out, given technology at Citi has a long way to go before it can be called as modernized. That would take a dedicated person Anyway, I remember some who used to say David is... — read more
