Curious if there would be a notice period for those who will be laid off in Nov? If so, how long? 45 days or more?

Laughable vicious cycle
So Citi “tries” to meet the market standard when it comes to salary for top talent. They are at best low to average in that area. Then later, they decide to layoff or run off people for whatever reason. Often times they run off people making the... — read more
I wish they would just do it
I'd rather know today if I'm losing my job than speculate and worry for the next few weeks or months. This is going to be a true nightmare.
90 days non-working notice for those laid off in NY?
Does anyone know if Citi gives 90 days non-working notice to employees being laid off in NY? If so, can I claim I’m still employed while applying for other jobs within those 90 days? If I land smth and the new employer does a background check before... — read more

The Reduction will happen in January
The Layoffs will happen in January citing Performance as reason and NO Pay raises. People will be tempted to move themselves to save Severance cost.
Rescinding new job offers
I was offered a job recently. What are the chances of the offer being rescinded?
Keep Jane if you want more the same…..
The stock price is down 40% since she’s been in office. Citi went on a hiring spree under Jane’s direction. Now its deemed that we have too many people. JPM has more employees but has a much better return on the stock price, balance sheet and brand... — read more

Annual Performance Meetings??
Has anyone had their annual performance meetings yet with their manager? I'm getting concerned as mine hasn't happened yet. Shouldn't it be before Thanksgiving?
Older employees
If you are over 50, your chances of being laid off are automatically higher. This has nothing to do with age discrimination or anything like that. The fact is, the longer you've been here, the more you make. And when the goal is to cut costs, those... — read more
What sort of severance package does Citi give?
For people who have been laid off from Citi, what sort of severance package did you get? Did you get severance pay, and if so how many weeks' salary per year of service did you get? How about health benefits, are those immediately cut off or can you... — read more
How are candidates being picked for a layoff?

H1B visa holders will be spared in layoff
Heard from insider. If you have H1B visa you should be safe. Reason being that people on visa will have to leave the country if they can't find another job in 90 days. Company si trying their best not to destroy people's lives.

Time to leave
This is now getting ridiculous. I refuse to stay at a place where I have to worry about layoffs 24/7/365. Enough is enough.
Project Bora Bora
Around 10% is being considered according to; https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2023/11/06/citigroup-considers-deep-job-cuts-project-bora-bora.html
A regime change is needed. Jane needs to go.
I don’t think there’s a word invented yet to express how little they care about the emotional, mental, psychological effect a layoff may have on anyone before, during or after the holidays. Don’t kid yourself by thinking that they do. You can... — read more
Cultural impacts?
Citi already had the worst culture, this is not helping.

Understand the Situation
Lots of posts for Layoff, Citi, Favoritism, etc.... Think of a few points Citi stock is around $38, which is far lesser than $60-70 it was earlier. Definitely the company is going less in stocks. Check the Finance sector and its futures. Its... — read more
40k employees to be laid off?
Is this true? With 250k employees that's about 15%. How many in the US ?
Citi is Complicated
The article says maybe 2K more will be let go outside of the 7K already laid off. Good guess? https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/10/27/citigroups-quarter-its-complicated/

Old school has to leave.
This includes Jane. Time for some new blood in the leadership space. Old ideas need to be kicked to the curb and open the door for the new ones. One thing for sure “more of the same” is not working.
Bogus posts…

Year end self assessment. How did you rate yourself?
I rated myself exceeds.
Too much focus on perception and not enough on the stock price.
Stock holders could care less what you do…so long as the stock price goes up which it did not do. Jane being the first CEO etc… wanted to continue to break the glass ceiling, and wanted to really set a standard as an innovator. She focused on ESG... — read more
Sad what Citi has turned into
I used to like working here. We were encouraged to work together and help each other. Now it's every man for himself. I feel like managers are now trained to throw you under the bus at any opportunity just to protect themselves. Add to this the lack... — read more
