I have a meeting today. Scheduled very late night. 90% chance being cut. I will come back to update if it's true. People in US already were told to retire if they can. Being in Tech or in low cost center does not save you.

I'm in risk and I have contacts across sites and functions and I didn't hear anything about any layoffs today. I know that means nothing but usually I hear things. Anybody else?

Machiavellian...

Was it a wrong info (March layoff) , I can say about my location ( my project and surrounding) no layoff news so far.

I don’t remember exactly where, but I saw a comment about Citi being a toxic place to work, followed by a request for clarification. I don't recall the OP ever following up, but as a software engineer who’s been at Citi for some time now, I have my... — read more
