Timeline: Citi hire of Vis Raghavan after JPMorgan bullying allegations (2016-2026)

The article notes that, after spending two years at Citi, Raghavan is among the top contenders to replace Citi CEO Jane Fraser, triggering concern among colleagues.

An exposé by the Financial Times documents witnesses describing Raghavan's publicly berating behaviour, use of offensive language, and two internal reviews, portrayed in the article reporting on the allegations.

Before JPMorgan could announce a new leadership structure, Raghavan moved quickly to Citi and secured a role there; Citi publicly announced his hiring the very next morning.

After the leadership changes, Piepszak and Rohrbaugh reportedly reviewed concerns about Raghavan's behaviour and leadership style and concluded that his position at the bank was no longer sustainable; he was told there was no long-term future at JPMorgan.

In early 2024, Jamie Dimon reshuffled JPMorgan's leadership. Jennifer Piepszak and Troy Rohrbaugh were appointed to lead the investment banking and trading divisions, replacing Daniel Pinto, and Raghavan became the bank's sole head of investment banking under the new structure.

The bank reportedly cut Raghavan's pay in response to problems with his behaviour, a decision described as a pay reduction occurring around 2023.

On his first day at JPMorgan's Canary Wharf office, Raghavan allegedly made remarks about a woman he had once found attractive as a student, saying she was now fat. Dozens of junior employees reportedly complained, and HR was alerted.
