Citigroup Buffalo

Anyone have any information at all in terms of office culture, comp etc etc? Similar to DB Jacksonville or GS SLC?

Any chance they move the position into NYC for the right candidate?

Have several years of sell-side ER experience in a similar space. Want to make sure Buffalo wouldn't be a dead end.

Thanks

Citi has a large campus out there. I know they do credit, risk and some other things, not 100% sure about ER though. Not doubting you, just I can't confirm or deny.

Buffalo really should be renamed Bank-alo. M&T is HQ'd there. First Niagara. Citi is big there, BoA, Key, HSBC has massive operations. I'd say a good place to be for 2-3 years. Any more than that and you will want to kill yourself.

Food is good there. Bars open to 4am. Toronto is close. I spent a lot of time there and really love it.

 

The initial wave of Citi Buffalo associates from 2009/2010 mostly left for better jobs once the economy improved a bit. I've heard they rehired and added more associates in Buffalo, but they don't make any promises on a promotion to NYC.

I don't think it will matter what your experience is if they opening is in Buffalo. Citi knows people don't want to go there but they're doing it to save money. If you need a job then take it while you continue to look elsewhere, but if you have other options then I would probably pass unless you have a connection to Buffalo.
