Do they assume people in OPS don't need somewhere to live? Nomura has a 3k stipend for their OPS interns.

Anyone sure that I will not be getting one.

there is a reason your salary has a 15k discount and you dont get a signing bonus. It means you are even more dispensable than the front office SAs. They dont have to pay as much to fight off the competitors to get you to sign the offer

 

Last year, Citi's initial offer for summer analysts included 2k for relocation, which is meant to cover (part of) housing as well. Later in the spring they upped it to 3k, which makes it look like your housing is all taken care of but in reality it is taxed a LOT.

Not 100% correct, he also doesn't work as much as those who get 15k more... if you calculate the hourly rate..I don't think its that much different if not even more... (but i think many would prefer to work more and get paid more ^ ^ )

you sure you don't have the $2000 relocation? I thought that was for every summer analyst.. I'm gonna work for Citi GTS Client Sales team~

Not sure about OPS but someone else posted that for 2010 they got 2,000 relocation for a summer analyst position with Citi....like someone earlier said, you are probably from a non-target school. Don't sweat it though, be happy you have a position, it's better than most prospective people right now.

Did Citi offered you any overtime?
