Pros

- Largest bank in Canada so good deal experience and ability to learn from very bright people - If you take initiative and are keen, there is a chance to take on alot of responsability very early on in your career. -

Cons

- Sometimes in large organizations it is difficult to get attention of senior management - There is too much focus on the final result and not enough focus on the people - Often people have a tendency to get "too comfortable" which can lead to lost opportunities - The culture rewards people who are "in your face" whereas more reserved people tend to be dismissed -

Pros

Riverside around WTC is pretty nice

Cons

OMG the worst company I've ever been. There are a lot of small groups inside the department, and most of them are mean and rude.
