Curious to know what bonuses look like for everyone at Citi. I was a VP, and my first year I received no bonus at all. In the years that followed, my annual bonuses typically ranged from $800 to $1,000.
I’m interested to hear what others have received, particularly those at the VP level. Were my bonuses unusually low, or was this pretty standard across the bank?
Here are the targets for DIRA. The higher your ratings, the higher the %. These are average.
C12 5%
C13 7%
C14 16%
@kc I was getting 10-12% as a C13 too (I'm the same person who commented as C14 just before you)
Bonus starts to mean something from C14 and up.
C14 in Tech. Got around 10-12% last year with a 3,3 rating. For context, a default rating was forced on everyone who got promoted, regardless the outcome of their work. My boss said he tried to make up for that with a slightly higher than average bonus.
C13 with 20+ years. Subject matter expert in my field with no professionally qualified equal in the company. last year that was able to garner me a whopping 2.5% bonus! Citi has me by the ba--s. I'm too old to start over and make just enough not to tell them to go "F" themselves.
C14 IC in Risk - $60K in 2025
I am C14 (IC) and my last year bonus was USD 350 with average rating. I was so shocked and I asked my boss twice - Is there a typo and missed 0 or 00.
C15 in risk. 75k bonus
My NYC C15 Bonus about 25-30% of base which, honestly, is awful. Over $75k it is deferred stock. I'll have lots of stock in a few years. Leave if they don't pay you enough folks.
C14 in ICRM AML here. In my experience, it usually ranges between 8-12% depending on the team/director
What does any of this have to do with layoffs??
Apologies! Newly hired. What is the timeline for bonus credit? (What month)
for the past 20 years I have averaged anywhere from 2-5% of base salary. I never count on it, its just a little extra cash to pay my taxes, I can't really do anything fun or meaningful with that little extra cash.
This is kind of a nonsensical question. Teller at a branch will probably get $500, managing director in sales and trading will have upwards of $1mil. What part of the bank are you working in? And yes, if you got a donut for your first year, then your managers f*cked you...
The first year, your manager 100% took from your pro-rated bonus pool and gave it to someone else on the team.
LoL! Your management and teammates stole from you. Poor fellow! That's not bonus. I'd reject and probably donate that to save on taxes.
Cancel your Citi cards now. They give better bonuses in other countries and for other people.
They don't deserve your business. Boycott!
