Citi as one of the largest banks on Wall Street
Citi is a financial service company that commenced its operations 24 years ago. The company was founded by Sanford Weill, and it is ranked as one of the largest banking institutions in the United States, alongside others such as the Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and JPMorgan Chase.
Citi has many subsidiaries globally. The company has active operations across multiple sectors like banking, equities trading, asset management, investment, and risk management. Citi has emerged as one of the firms on Wall Street that favor remote work.
In December 2022, the bank’s CEO, Jane Fraser, said that employees at the company could work remotely during the last two weeks of the year. However, earlier this week, while speaking at an event held by the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, revealed that remote employees needed to come back to the office so they could be coached on improving their productivity.
