Layoff Location
Is all the layoff focused at Tampa and Texas? How about other locations, Manila, India, Warsaw, Belfast, Dublin or UK or Costa Rica etc etc.
AML in Tampa Impacted?
Anyone know if AML was affected?
Tampa layoffs
Anybody?
KYC Cards
Looks like onshore KYC Cards had impacts today
KYC US Layoffs
KYC layoffs within Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Tampa locations today. Offshoring the work to Costa Rica while there they struggle to work through the cases leading to greater customer impact. All in the name of cutting costs, right?

Everyone at the office says the same exact thing about HR and AI.
If you want to trim away the useless, then start with HR. Just keep the bare bones skeleton crew, let the HR chatbot and AI do the rest of that work. If Citi AI can’t handle the mundane low hanging fruit HR work, then it has no place trying to be... — read more
Belfast thinks they are safe. It’s all about the crossed fingers and let’s huddle together.
Just like so many other sites, they were given a feel good speech and feel all safe and sound. It’s all nice weather before the storm hits. The layoffs are a roving spot light. Sometimes it quickly passes over, sometimes it stops and stays for a... — read more
This will be a hard post as I have to be vague.
So after the multi phased layoff, re-orgs, I have a MD 3 layers up that does not understand the tech they are over. No shocker there, but they are making decisions that more than hamper operations. I can’t be specific naturally but let’s just say... — read more
Low cost centers affected
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.
Seemed quiet today
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?

No layoff today in my location (canada tech)
Was it a wrong info (March layoff) , I can say about my location ( my project and surrounding) no layoff news so far.
Toxic Citi Culture
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
Internal Audit
Does anyone know what happened to some of the C15s in Internal Audit. I just searched some C15s that I knew in Internal Audit and all their direct reports are there in global directory but they now C14 report to C16….Did the layoffs impact Audit?
Transformation and CO - Get out ASAP
Trim Ryan posted about it. Others have mentioned it. If your role is even remotely tagged to Transformation and/or CO - find a new job asap. You WILL get Rif'd. It's not a question of if but a question of when. Save yourselves the mental agony of... — read more
Director Severance
What can a director expect to get as a severance package?
If you are let go, the worst thing you can do is to come to this board and live here.
I understand ‘getting it out of your system’ and informing the masses but beyond that, put this board aside forever and move on. The more you come here to rant, the more Citi is living inside your head rent free, still siphoning off your life... — read more
Has Anyone Been Denied Severance For 3/4 Rating?
I got a 4, and no PIP. But was any one pip-ed after year-end reviews in order for them to deny?

Those with skills will always have options.
If you’re in tech all is not lost, gloom and doom and all that jazz. There are other companies out there outside of finance and banking that also use AD, exchange, sharepoint, SQL, firewalls, linux, unix, routers, switches, vm’s etc…. Citi is not... — read more
Movie Recommendation for all navigating this environment
"The Company Men" (2010) It was made after the 2008 financial crisis, but honestly it feels like it could've been written in 2026. A lot of the dialogue is almost verbatim what many of us are hearing now. Very relatable. Was recommended by another... — read more
Job search reality check
I'm curious how many are actually getting interviews and offers versus just sending resumes into the void.
We are working together to grow, we need you to do your job even people around you laid off.
Just focus on your work. We will make sure you will be fired at the right time. We will push you to complete work by March and June, etc., but you assume you are safe even when your peer is laid off. Be honest at your work even when your manager... — read more
I asked AI what it thought about replacing a CEO with AI.
Response was Using AI to replace a CEO’s decision‑making can be framed as beneficial when the focus is on cost efficiency, consistency, and data‑driven governance, especially in organizations where strategic decisions are already heavily... — read more

Layoffs and AI...
I think many people do not get it - AI will impact many jobs for the simple reason that in the past 30 years we created lots of so-called bullsh-t jobs and many of you are doing them. And AI will ki-l those, but that is ok. Personal assistants... — read more

Block Cuts 4,000 Jobs
Block’s layoff news today is pretty fascinating. Jack Dorsey just cut nearly half the company — over 4,000 employees. Headcount goes from 10k+ to under 6k. Stock? Up 25% in a day. And here’s the interesting part: They’re not losing money. Q4... — read more
NYC ?????
It's been scary quiet regarding layoff impact in NYC. Anyone care to share any insight into the matter?
Performative culture
Citi has shallow, performative culture that makes you feel small for wanting to do actual meaningful work. No wonder things have ben getting worse all the time when our values are completely broken.
Chaos
The level of chaos and misery that I am seeing in Irving is off the charts. I've been in corporate America for decades and I've never seen anything approaching this level of cruelty-- unfortunately I think that's the point.
Layoff stopped?
Is it done for Feb?
