Enthusiasm is a prerequisite for professional success

We apply global standard performance-based appraisal principles to our basic personnel remuneration system. However, our approach is slightly different: together with tangible results, we also greatly acknowledge personal abilities including professional enthusiasm, a desire for new challenges, teamwork and an overall sense of accountability to clients, colleagues and our franchise. Over the years we have found that personal strengths, such as drive and enthusiasm, lead to results. We promote and encourage individual initiative at Citigroup Global Markets Japan, helping our employees realize their full potential. This ideology sets us apart from companies who evaluate their employees simply based on numbers.
