Worked as a contractor through a greedy staffing agency and was making really poor rate. Learnt quite a bit though whih increased my value and I was able to jump ship pretty easily. Citi New York- IT- Operations
I worked as a business analyst in Citibank, New Jersey and the work was normal banking IT job. The pay is not that great and the opportunity to learn not so great so I quit in 6 months.
Citibank has a bunch of contractors working in the Tampa Bay office mostly in backoffice type work including anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know your Customer (KYC) compliance. The atmosphere is pretty laid back, the work semi interesting and the pay is actually pretty decent. The location of the office is great and facility is nice.
