CitiStreet Reviews

Pros

There is some hope that they may be changed after Merge with ING

Cons

too many hourly paid workers than fixed yearly salary promotes the waste of time in producing the real result.
Be aware that the actual hourly rate went way down after merge with ING.
Be careful in conversation with those who survived there a long time since they want the same way be kept forever in their comfort zone.

Advice to Senior Management

Verifying the real pay towards the hourly salaried, then change the pay to fixed one matching a little higher total than the total that they get with sum of overtime. Those would promote the real efficiency, the real result in job, and work-life balance

Pros

The benefits package wasn't bad, but still not the best for a company that makes the amount of money they make.
The location is about the only thing that was a good reason.

Cons

Management of Corporate Finance sucks. Especially, as an a management accountant coming in with a few years of experience, the controller and leader supervisors are not there to help get the job done. They are chauvanistic and completely condesending. It's a male dominated environment and is not a place for women to prosper.

Advice to Senior Management

Listen to the needs of your employees .
Do not promote non-experienced imature individuals to management.
Put a stop to the office politics that take away from the company core standards.

Pros

A lot of the people (worker bees) make it a nice place to work

Cons

Lack of communication from management and no camaraderie with them at all.

Advice to Senior Management

Stop being so selfish and show real appreciation and give more than menial pay raises to the people that support senior management.

Advice to Senior Management

Provide more competitive pay and benefits. Provide better training and ways to grow within the company.

Cons

seniority over ability for a promotion opportunity
