Citicorp Assistant Vice President Reviews

Good Number of leaves/holidays, transport and insurance benefits

Dislikes

Not able to utilize leaves, weekend working for production, etc. developer is everything, no one blames tester, PM, tech support, BA, agile coaches, scrum masters, etc. no technical growth, dead slow progress in technical and non technical aspects, you are treated as donkeys and freshers even after having 10-16 yrs exp. managers dont have enough free hand to take even minor decisions, appraisals dont have transparency, too much work load (mngt dont increase workforce or try to negotiate with client on release scope) as a result work never ends. no one cares if you are alive or healthy though org provides good health benefits. you will have to carry laptops when on leave, HR dont help with anything. You interact with them only during onboarding, later they vanish in air. Lots of processes and strict policies which bothers you now and then and makes you think about job security each moment you work for the company. Only 5% is actual core technical work, rest all is process/policies/approvals/followups/meetings/onboarding activities/release planning/budget planning/productivity planning/etc. If you by chance sit in other Bus (diff. shift timings) you will get an email like you done a big sin asking for a justification keeping dept head and all seniors in CC. No one cares if a PC is working or not, wires connected properly or not,. You may not get a seat if you go to office and need to come back home travelling all 30 kms in such case. Even managers cant support you for that. Cant access Salary slips out of org network. There is too-complex process to share salary slips over personal email. Internal Job Postings are available, but HR dont help/careintermediate if you are in dire need. Finally talent is lost !!...Read More

Citi has multiple initiatives to help employee skill themselves, also it provides good compensation to right candidate who is at right place at right time.

Dislikes

It's advantage of having options for employees to skill themselves remains a distant fruit to most of starting or mid level workforce as most of those spend maximum of their time and overtime working/supporting daily application. Have got the same feedback from most of people. So after spending some 3-5 years with organization thereis high probability that you would feel lagging behind your other friends working in similar organization and would feel difficult to switch....Read More

Nothing. The company especially the Bengaluru Location is like a Milk production Diary and the employees are the livestock. Once they are milked enough then they are sent out for Slaughter.

Dislikes

Everything. They hire you at a very high package, in fact way more than current market trends so that you don't get employed elsewhere after you join Citi. Then the work culture, management, pathetic bosses, layoffs and always uncertainty makes it so difficult to survive. Eventually you succumb or go with the flow to lose your mental balance.

- Cab Service - Annual Subscription to Udemy and other courses

Dislikes

- Work-Life balance is hectic. Have to work even on weekends - Worst management. There is no quality work and there is no core engineering happening here. - Lot of office politics especially in the Bangalore office. If you are a bootlicker, you will get good promotions. - Especially, managers in the USPB team in Bangalore are the worst. They don't have basic empathy and treat their employees like hell. Don't join the Bangalore office. It's worst....Read More

Leaves and salary compensation.

Dislikes

Organizational culture. People are sitting for 17-20 years and have completely spoiled the environment. Too much politics across maximum teams I came across and interacted. More than work 90% of time goes in office politics. HR is good for nothing.

Likes

Awesome salaries. Good company policies. Like car rental policy for C12 and above.

Dislikes

Although it's depends on team/project, I feel there is always work pressure. You'll get highlighted by following processes and not by doing actual work that you hired for. Parental insurance is around 60% heigher side
