Citigroup, which has more than 350,000 employees globally, had fired at least 9,000 workers as of March 31, the Journal said.
Mergers-and-acquisitions bankers are expected to see especially sharp cuts, in part because their ranks were not trimmed as much as other units earlier this year, the report said.
