CIT is a division of First Citizens Bank and Trust Co.
Didn't First Citizens just acquire the assets of SVB?
4.80% is good for a no-penalty CD.
For a normal CD, Marcus is offering a 10-month 5.05%.
CIT also has a savings account for 4.75% if you put in more than $5k. Keep in mind that CIT is notorious for creating new savings products with higher rates and reducing the rates of old ones without telling you.
Ally needs to match this. They just lowered theirs to 4.35% from 4.75%.

Their savings account is at 4.5%. is 11 months of lockout worth 30bps?

This is a no-penalty CD, i.e. you should be able to withdraw funds without any penalty. You are essentially locking your funds for the first 6 days.

With a No-Penalty CD, you may withdraw the total balance and interest earned, without penalty, beginning 7 days after funds have been received for your CD. No withdrawals are permitted during the first 6 days following the receipt of funds.

You're not locked out if it is a "no penalty" CD.

T-bills aren't as liquid as no penalty CDs.

Not as liquid but still very liquid. Same with brokerage cds

So if I cash out after 4 months, will I still get 4 months worth of compounded interest accrued?

That's correct.

The only caveat is you have to withdrawal the entire balance at once.

Not really, but still would prefer a highly rated bank if I'm going to open an account.

This is what's stated on their webpage for this CD:

Same. Mine was reduced down to 0.5% from 4% after about a year. They were offering new accounts around 3.5% at the time. They also didn't give you a way to transfer the money out without paying a $20 fee.

I've had a few CIT savings account over the past several years. I say "a few" because, as others have said, they lowered the rate of my account in the past and either my wife or I would just open a new account with the highest rate and transfer the money to the newer higher rate account.

Recently though, CIT has notified us on 2 occasions that they raised our rate to that of the new account rates. Mine is currently a "Savings Connect" account that was recently raised to 4.5%.

I have no complaints. Online account is easy to setup and use, and transfers have been the same as any other online accounts I've used.
