Thank you to Story 259 for testifying that even men think Citi is a professionally bankrupt environment. The baseless arrogance in this place is staggering — particularly given how little actual capability underlies it. When MDs were pushed out in the 2023 reorganization, some called the Big Four looking for positions and couldn’t be placed…
To Story 266. You raise meritocracy as the standard. Agreed entirely. So let us apply it. For the first five years of Fraser’s tenure, the vast majority of her direct reports have been men. On your logic, one of two conclusions follows: either Citi employs the most talented concentration of male leadership in the history…
You seem desperate to suck up to Jane whereas I’m not her slave. But, also, I didn’t criticize her in the least. I simply pointed out that her job is to also manage risk. Here’s the answer ChatGPT has. But by all means, come back at me again. I’ll be here all night. A diverse…
RE: Story 268 Fair enough but how would hiring more women into leadership roles or sponsoring them mitigate any of the risks indicated in your examples? You appear all over the place and are criticizing without rhyme and reason. Let’s cut Jane some slack. She has done a wonderful job which should be celebrated.
To Story 266: Respectfully, the situation may be more complex than it appears. And you, ma’am, are the one who appears naïve. While Fraser has clearly delivered on profitability, it’s obvious to anyone paying attention that the firm’s risk profile has increased materially — and Citi appears to be getting a pass in the current…
Gentle reader, this author has observed many a spectacle in her time. Yet nothing — not the most brazen advancement seeker of no particular merit, not the most shameless title hunter — quite prepares one for the singular institution that is Citi. For at Citi, no one will give you a job description. But if…
Re: Story #265 All I see is a desperate attempt to malign one of the best female CEOs in decades Seems like you have confused Jane for a social activist vs. business leader. She is answerable to shareholders and needs to enable decisions which are best for business which may some time not result in…
To Story 264. Fraser appeared to do a lot for women when she first became CEO; I’ll give you that. But it’s clear now that it was a performative kiss-ass to the Biden administration. The minute Donald Trump was in office, she dismantled DEI, going so far as to forbid anyone from attending or supporting…
My experience is slightly different with Citi. Jane Fraser’s leadership stands out for her consistent commitment to advancing women in the workplace. As CEO of Citigroup, she has championed initiatives that promote gender equity, including transparent pay practices and leadership development programs aimed at elevating female talent. Fraser leads by example, breaking barriers herself as…
If a submission comes in with a dozen typos, rambling run-on sentences, and nonsensical blabber, we will assume it’s fake. With the onset of tools otherwise known as ChatGPT (which can be used for free), it’s possible to sound professional without much effort. #BeBetter
