Pros

World'd largest bank good brand recognition in the bigger markets (Vancouver, Calgary etc.) Benefits are decent. Vacation time given is good.

Cons

Ongoing growing pains. Smaller markets no brand recognition. Targets are huge and same for everyone in that role no matter what IT sucks complicated systems and a lot of redundant paperwork. No Sick days!

Pros

Good, smart colleagues in other offices.

Cons

At times, decisions appeared to prioritize individual objectives over team needs, which affected collaboration and morale. Greater consideration of team perspectives and shared goals would help build trust and engagement. I observed instances where expectations communicated to the team were not consistently reflected in leadership actions. Greater consistency between stated values and day-to-day decisions would strengthen credibility and confidence within the team.
