OneMain Financial (formerly CitiFinancial) Reviews

Pros

base pay, decent benefits but you still have to pay for insurance

Cons

low salary, old school management style, always expecting more results (what have you done for me lately)

Advice to Senior Management

treat employees better, give them better salaries, and do not constantly harp on what needs to be done and not give praise for what has been completed

Pros

Good medical benefits, mmm, the internal training is fair, they employ a system of modular online self paced units for learning but allow little time to complete. Most branches are understaffed so you can generally "hit your numbers."

Cons

Low pay, few opportunities, high pressure sales tactics, mid-level managers encourage lax compliance to meet numbers, branches continue to close, one step above a payday loan company.

Advice to Senior Management

Nothing is held in confidence. They don't want any critical advice but love to dish it out. Mary McDowell is just a puppet of CitiGroup, don't blame her. Call your favorite Headhunter without delay.

Pros

Benefits are good, pay is reasonable

Cons

There are many! Hate the xsell system which is what everthing is based on now! Didn't this company learn anything from the financial downfall!

Advice to Senior Management

Get in touch with what actually goes on in a branch!

Pros

Good benefits, good starter job

Cons

No room for growth, products offered border on predatory lending, company is for sale and bleeding money, Citi Group has no interest in investing in One Main Financial aka CitiFinancial.

Advice to Senior Management

None

Pros

great benefits and flexible hours

Cons

low pay and advancement is questionable

Advice to Senior Management

work on turnover rate and starting pay. doesn't make sense to keep training new people when you can just make quality long term associates that are willing to grow with the company

Pros

The people. We were all in it together, which didn't necessarily help.

Cons

Working for a borderline predatory lender was not my idea of fun, nor was it an organization I could say unequivocally was a place I was PROUD to work. Did what I had to do for my family while trying to maintain my integrity. Wasn't easy.

Advice to Senior Management

Institute an employee rotation program to enable employees to grow and contribute to the organization without pigeon holding them into dead end roles.

Pros

its a great company, has a very challenging environment with best set of professionals in the team ,
citifinancial recoginises its employee's on merits,
quaterly sip incentives based on performance are good

Cons

overall i was satisfied with my tenure in citifinancial,well lately the yearly increments were less but then overall financial sector was not doing well due to recession, again compared to the industry, increments were good enough.

Pros

Flexible hours, multiple locations, good people

Cons

management doesn't know what they are doing

Pros

Cheap decent benefits
... and that's it

Cons

Horrible business strategies
Horrible products
Drink the kool aid mentality
Managers aren't educated or experienced
Little opportunity for growth

Advice to Senior Management

Find a new business endeavor rather than trying to stick people in to perpetual debt for eternity.

Pros

well known company, decent benefits

Cons

every man for himself. trust no one. complete lack of integrity towards customers.
