A very useless group of smug people who put forth more effort to not help you than any other group in Citi. All I’ve ever gotten from them is busted links or links to FAQ’s which have nothing to do with my initial question.
DevOps teams inside Citi ?
Seems DevOps team are scrutinized and shuffled. Do Developers need to look after DevOps too ?
no layoffs in TTS
they could’ve mentioned this back in september. 4 months of drama
VOE farce, the shame of it all.
When the VOE hits, no one will dare say a thing about the way the layoff is handled out of fear….as usual. So when the results are in, the feedback will be “I guess we didn’t do so bad after all, the results are much better than we expected” . So... — read more
Pro Citi naysayer mentality
Who are the pro citi naysayers? The naysayer group are wide and varying. Composed of HR plants, prideful managers, koolaid drinkers, and brown noser’s. Why are they hardcore pro citi naysayers on this board? I believe most of it can fall into... — read more
The Citi Chaos
Most Citi employees are applying for jobs, but not even a single call for interview. Employees are facing fear of job loss, urge to leave, politics, cheating to hold position, project control, and severe mental pressure. Project decisions are... — read more
"Legacy Franchises" - who are they and what do they do?
Based on the name, wouldn't they be more at risk for cuts than anyone else?
End game??? Is the master plan that’s by design to chop up Citi and sell it off in parts.
From another post: “Bad outlook due to myopic leadership. Citi’s great competitive advantage was its global reach. Instead, Citi’s execs decided to dismantle the global components to improve stock price for short term profit. By 2026 Citi will have... — read more

2024 Job Market
How are you guys doing so far? I miss the COVID days.. had two offers from GS and JPM within two months of each other and took the Citi match to not RTO. Nowadays I barely get any bites, it's exhausting.
Jan layoffs update

Is it too risky to work here?
I just got a new job offer as a VP in compliance but hearing of all the restructuring and layoffs scares me. On the other hand if you make it out the other side it may not be such a bad thing. What say you.
2024 will be a bull market. Make your move then.
Maybe not now at the onset but overall before its over with, this year has a good chance of being a bull market. Of course nothing is for certain but after each recession, there is a strong bull run. Are we in a recession, yes, no, maybe. Most... — read more
Citi “No compete” vs moving oh so on
No compete is for vendors we do business with, not the competition. We work with and have a no compete with company ABC. You can’t leave Citi and go to work for company ABC for 1 year. If let go by Citi, the no compete is null and void. The no... — read more
13% SVP cut. 15% O&T staff cuts coming
Im a MD. Have zero idea what my new role is. No clue who are these people B-C-G put in my square boxes. Nobody asked me. my manager has a job lined up at JP and planning to quit after February 2nd. Wants me to join him after one year due to... — read more
Next phase is week of Feb 20th?
Anyone got information on when’s the next phase of layoff happening? Is it around the week of Feb 20th similar to how it was in Jan?
The hones truth for us all.
I have never bought anything with money. Everything I have was bought with pieces of time I sold from my life to a job that will never have paid enough when my time is up. No, those long days are not worth it.
Why is voluntary redundancy not being offered?
Surely this option would benefit most - some people want to leave anyway and then there is more room for those who want to stay.
ZERO RAISE
I did not get a raise for 6 years in a row- is that legal? I know crazy for staying but as a single mom- I needed the security.
Upcoming C14 and C13 Layoff deciders
Who is going to be C14 and C13 layoff deciders. Is it external company like what they did for C15 and and above or is it going to be internal management ?
Citi warn period
Does Citi warn period of 2-3 months applicable to upcoming layoffs of C14 and C13 as well ? or only for top management ?
Sales and trading layoffs
Any layoff in sales and trading C16 NY or it's over?
Is unused PTO used along with severance?
Is this similar to getting paid out when you voluntarily leave?
Paid Time Off in Workday
Should there be concern when available planned paid time off is zero hours? On Workday the only two rows that show any values other than 0 are Volunteer and unplanned time and planned/holiday show 0. Is this how everyone's is now showing or should I... — read more
New salary is still not effective?
Why is new salary not effective yet? HR email from yesterday with new comp details said it’s effective as of Jan 1, 2024. But when I check paystubs/my comp today (Jan 25, 2024) it still reflects old salary which was lower
This is mental torture
I swear, I can't take much more of this. Citi wins. I'll start looking for a way to leave on my own.
Is it even worth it to work here now?
So many are scrambling to have a bunch of useless meetings and sending multiple emails to show they are busy and 'adding value'. Some directors, SVP, group managers, leads, etc are spending time justifying their roles and making up stuff to delegate... — read more

Mark the Clown
Always enough money to bring in another high-level executive. Nice going, Mark Mason you absolute clown.
one of the 5000
Hello, I am one of the 5000. I have to admit that I am still emotional about this, but also push myself to be more realistic. I wonder whether there is anyone else here in the same boat. How is your bonus situation, my other 4999 fellows? I have not... — read more

Grass is always greener
