Pamela Tsai (蔡慧芬), head of Human Resources of Citibank Taiwan Ltd said, “We are proud of Citi’s long track record of being a meritocracy, and are dedicated to fostering a work environment where all colleagues are empowered to participate fully and reach their potential.”
Widely recognized for nurturing talent in the financial sector, Citi’s Full-time Analyst Program (formerly known as Management Associate Program) was first introduced in Taiwan in 1977. Since then, Citi has remained committed to nurturing local talent and enhancing training and development programs.
In addition to being recognized as the “Best Companies to Work for in Asia” by HR Asia, Citibank Taiwan Ltd has also received numerous accolades over the years, including the “Best Staff Retention” award from 104 Job Bank. These recognitions reflect Citi’s ongoing commitment to talent development and to building a workplace where all can thrive.
Companies in Taiwan are navigating critical challenges in talent retention, multigenerational workforce integration, and shifting employee expectations. According to the National Development Council, Taiwan is expected to face a shortfall of 480,000 workers by 2030, with 71 percent of Taiwanese employers reporting difficulty in filling critical positions, and nearly half (49 percent) find it challenging to fill mid-to-senior level positions.
The award ceremony was held on August 8, with Pamela Tsai, head of Human Resources at Citibank Taiwan Ltd, accepting the award on behalf of the company.
