I assume Citigroup is planning for the output of their workforce to decrease with all these layoff and not assume the other employees to pick up the slack. Right?

In a number of cases, yes. Whole departments are being slashed/they are exiting certain business lines so no need to pick up the slack there.

It takes banks years to exit a business after they stop brining in new customers.
