I did not dislike anything about working at Citigroup except that the haze in Singapore which ran for 3+ months affected my young daughter, wife and had to return back to India to show them to doctors. Company should have provided an option for me to come back and continue working in Singapore after one or 2 months of family leave

At times internal politics takes toll on you especially when you deliver 9/10 jobs. That 1 job which you didn't do ( because it was never a priority) will be marked by your boss and no proper handover.
