Citi Employer Reviews

Colleges can be very cut throat and aggressive. Management seemed to be all about money. The core values didn't support management sales style. All government regulations were closely followed.

• Although I had a what could be categorized as rocky start with Citi.

The people at this company are the most enjoyable part of the job. The supervisors always made themselves available for training or to ask any questions. My co-workers were very "lively" individuals with awesome personalities and made coming to work feel like a vacation.

Was able to work in two different departments at a high level and accomplish every task given to me. Was a very professional and comfortable environment.

I have great customer service skills and the ability to diffuse irate customers which helps me assist the customers. The hardest part of the job is speaking with people who have experienced financial setbacks but have the desire to pay on time. The most enjoyable part of my job is showing compassion to others while still maintaining the reason for the – more...  contact which is to collect on delinquent accounts – less

owner. Each call adds to my experience of excellent customer
service.

which alleviated their stress. – less

Reviewed a team of 20 to 40 agents, all with different levels of experience and job duties. Each call to be reviewed could be short as one to two minutes or 15 minutes long. Each call is monitored for customer service, efficiency, and correct resolution. Agents must use the correct format when answering the phone and when ending the call. Agents are – more...  rated by the score I give them. As a Quality Assurance Agent you must be an expert in the applications and tools the agent is using plus an expert in Customer Service methods. I learned to really listen and analyze tone, delivery, and variations in the manner agents deliver advice and assistance. The hardest part of the job was being deemed as the enemy by your fellow customer service agents or that you didn't work as hard as them, when in fact you worked harder, the burden of proof was up to you. This where experience, research, and knowledge came to play. My fellow co-workers were very knowledgeable and cordial; they never hesitated in helping out. – less

I get the rare opportunity of changing not only the way we operate as a business from an operations "process" perspective, but I also get the opportunity to strategically change the behavior of the operations support teams as well. This changes all with the interest of the client experience in mind.

In an environment where the process is global in – more...  nature and complexity, with low personnel staff morale, the implementation of such a drastic change can make for a challening task. It is the objective for targeting improved client satisfication, through an operations functional transformation, that drives my committment to the success of the program. – less

Responsible for investigating certain legal matters, per attorney's request. Most matters consisted of taking photographs of automobile accident sites and enlarging photos for trial purposes.

Citi was a very busy atmosphere. I worked in collections for past due credit card accounts.

Management was great with training and working with you to strive to become the best at the job that you were given. The hardest thing, trying to – more...  meet your production. The most enjoyable thing is to participate in the different activities like Meals on Wheels and having the chance to give back. – less

Learned a lot about Alternative Investments, all types of vehicles and styles. The people were friendly, helpful and very supportive. The office was gorgeous with great views of Central Park.

The people I worked with and for were a pleasure to be around. However, I found it difficult to maintain and keep up with the financial goals that were set by the company. The goals were never the same, from month to month. Not being able to maintain the high financial goals for 3 consecutive months put me in danger of losing my job.

Working for Citi has provided me the opportunity to grow not just within the company but also branch out and do other things. I have learned a lot on information regarding what may or may not be done during an active bankruptcy when it comes to secured and unsecured loans. The management here is very eager to assist any agent with assistance for them – more...  to grow within the company. – less
