Pros

I started at Citizens in one of their Early Career Development Programs for recent college grads. The support I received from the colleagues here has been overwhelming, in my program and beyond. The... program curriculum was thoughtfully designed to give us exposure to senior leadership and executives (including facetime with the CEO), as well as career guidance and experience rotating through many different targeted business areas before finding my permanent role a year later. I received support and hands-on-learning every step of the way. The program gave me career resources, such as a mentor, networking opportunities, formal presentation skills and experience working in cross-functional teams to complete a team-based project with other program participants across the bank's footprint. Having this support early on in my career made all the difference and has positively impacted my career, even today. Citizens' commitment to career development isn't limited to early career though, they provide you support for the lifetime of your career through formal and informal learning opportunities. Internal mobility is promoted and welcomed, with various chances to learn about new internal openings and teams. There are plenty of touchpoints to receive and provide feedback with your manager, with more structured conversations happening twice a year. Managers are encouraged to help build and support your growth plan and help you learn new skills. I'm incredibly happy in my role today and feel supported by my manager, the benefits and my amazing team. Everyone is truly so nice and willing to help. Whether you're just starting out, or have more tenure, Citizens is there to support your career development and growth both personally and professionally.
