Thread regarding Citigroup Inc. / Citibank / Citi layoffs

hey man, can't we all just get along??

Put all the bickering aside and do it for Jane, do it for the company. Once you do that, all worries will just melt away.

Hey man i take my lunch pail in and try to be the change i want to see as i started with the man in the mirror

Citi is bad in that respect - I have been in other top financial institutions, but here things are on another level - the problem is Citi has been promoting inadequate / low-level / low self-esteem people to managerial roles for decades and this is how they ended up the way they are - bailed out, no innovation, everybody is scared to say that something is wrong. I think some top managers realized that hence the reorg. But it will not be enough. Once you let the sh---y people to break in and take over it is very difficult to eradicate the disease.

C15 seems to be the penultimate rank of archetypal a-hole. Lampshade position where some are even just ICs. Big on ideas, short on understanding basic foundations of fintech. Know of at least 3 who are loathesome.

$hitty Guy often makes an anti Citi posts, then wait a bit, log back in to make a countering pro Citi argument just to stir things up.

Don’t fall for it guys.

Ok. We get it you don't like the guy. Can we get the focus back to commenting on OP's post. Thank you.

enter stage left, the child with his rhetoric.
I believe the goal for him is to hijack all threads with his rantings so much in fact that no one would bother with this board anymore. So no more audience for him once that happens. I wonder if he realizes that?

and there you go…..right on Q

Post ID: @bh+1jjz47ha8 How dare you insult $hittybank! The Anti-$hittybank Gest@po is patrolling and policing this site and is keeping/counting score!

He's valiantly protecting the honour (doesn't exist) of $hittybank!
The sociopath created Not one, but 2 Anti-$hittybank Threads specifically targeting and addressing the $hitty Guy!

What this Sociopath Anti-$hittybank Gest@po Thought Pol!ce doesn't realize is that he too is just an expense, a dispensible fungible widget that $hittybank can Fire at anytime even if he loves Big Brother $hittybank. (Just in time for Valentine's Day)

Yet, he presses on gallantly defending $hittybank and implements Orwellian surveillance of Anti-$hittybank thoughtcrime! ROTFLMFAOFFLOLOLOL!!!

Actor Christopher Walken said, "I gotta have more cowbell."

Does this mean no more cow jokes? They were the best.

He just read about the Dunning-Kruger Effect theory. Its new to him and makes him sound smart, so true to form he wedges it in to every conversation. This will go on for quite a while, you’ll see. Post will be hijacked with it left and right.

Alot of the young folk shouldnt have gome to college as they just dont have the skills. I am fine with 20 yr associates leaving too as they didnt move up so time to move out

The newbies don’t have the relevant experience and Citi worked really hard at running off what experienced staff it had.

As a manager the help has declined too which causes us to manage differently. Plus the newbies coming in really do not have relevant experience so we take the nest of the worst if that makes sense

Yes, it's rampant at Citi. A few reasons. Most good leaders are gone. Those that empower and respect and help to grow their teams are gone. Run off, or pursued other jobs that were more rewarding. What you have left is poor managers who couldn't make it anywhere else, don't know how awful they are, or are just biding their time. They get pressure. Pressure mounts from above and manifests itself into bad behavior. Being a poor manager to start with, add pressure and the behavior becomes toxic. Bullying, do as I say, fear, berating, are all tools used when effective tools don't exist. If all you have to manage deliverables is bullying and condescension, then that's what comes out.

Post ID: @OP+1jk6c01bs OP We're assuming this abusive, bullying and sanctimonious behaviour is mostly coming from $hittybank's favourite demographic, because it does and this is true.

Post ID: @f8+1jk1310ht Since $hittybank's many Diseases is the Dunning-Kruger Effect, actor Christopher Walken said the Only Prescription is More Cowbell.

Reference SNL skit with actor Christopher Walken. ROFLMFAOFFLOLOLOL!!!

One of $hittybank's many Diseases: Dunning-Kruger Effect. Google it.

As stated many times now, Citi would prefer to have an employee who is desperate and really needs this job. The more desperate you are, the more of a constant berating or brow beating you’ll put up with as they look over their shoulder at their peers with a smirk on their face with a “see how whipped I’ve got this one”.

There is a reason for this attitude in people in middle management and if you see closely people who spent more than 10 year in citi they are struggling with ego mentality, they assume nothing can stop their behaviour, it gives them some sort of ego stratification rather solution to problems or innovations. Just challenge them in front their team, no one is boss to any one here, you are doing job they are giving money.
