...e 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 !!

Compensation is much better than the market standard Prior to reorganization(mid-2024), the work environment was fine, offering good work-life balance Employees were treated accordingly to their roles and experience

Dislikes

After reorganization, only onsite position/team members are considered for lead, manager, principal engineer, with onsite role preserved due to senior management being based there most of the work is done by offshore, but it is projected only onsite employees contributed because to safeguard their role and senior management wants to be in saved position Offshore employees are treated like subordinates to onsite employees, even at the VP level Employees with 18+ years exp are treated and compared with juniors who is having less than 4 years exp Employees are under immense pressure, indirectly being forced to resign Suggestion to Management conduct a voting/poll among existing employees to determine who is willing to opt for voluntary retirement or leave with severance pay instead of using phycological pressure to force self-resignation

Good compensation

Dislikes

No work life balance, 12-15 hourse of work and management expect more. Third class autocratic management. No job Securities at all. You are the best performer if speak a lot and praise management, doesn't matter you work or not. No learning opportunities.

...across the globe to explore the Career Options within Citi and for the benefits. Citi had offered a very good pay scale that I respect and would always cherish. Several Training Program offerings to upscale the employees was a consistent initiative within Citi which was definitely a very good sign.

》》When an employee wish to raise a concern genuinely, it needs to be addressed. 》》Employee EXIT Survey Feedback shouldn't be blocked to prevent employee from providing feedback. 🚩Unfortunately in my case, it had been blocked to prevent me from raising the serious concerns. 🚩Despite highlighting it to HR partner, the matter had been lingering throughout my notice period of three months till my last day. 》》When a business unit is spanned geographically, every zonal team should respect Time zones of each other. 🚩Unfortunately, my London-based "Indian Manager" had completely disregarded and disrespected it. 》》Hiring a person for certain skill-sets and later setting unrealistic expectations by pressurizing ( Full time production support in all Time Zones ) which leads to deviation in career path, is an absolutely wrong practice, which had been cultivated by my London-based "Indian Manager". 🚩Forcing an employee to resign by threat of enforcing PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM is an another ugly tactic I had faced with my London-based "Indian Manager". 🚩Complete ignorance to my positive initiatives and efforts and focusing on evaluating negatively, finger-pointing mistakes. 🚩Sabotaging an employee's work and reputation is an another ugly practice followed within my team, that I had witnessed and experienced. 🚩London-based "Indian Manager" had not bothered to stop it and had rather continued with silent support. To my unpleasant surprise, such an highly objectionable individual, my female manager at London, is still employed and retained by Citi. Unaware of the fact that she is just aiming at SEVERANCE ALLOWANCE at the cost of her fallen credibility.

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 there is high probability that you would feel lagging behind your other friends working in similar organization and would feel difficult to switch.
