ATB Financial Reviews

Pros

We care so much about our customers - and frankly all Albertans even if they aren’t customers. It’s truly feeing to know that we can make the right decisions for customers and that it will be supported. To be a financial institution and be focused on customers makes it stand out even more. There is an appetite for changing the things that stand on the way and investing in continuous evolution of people, process... and technology so we are able to serve customers in unbelievable ways. It’s thriving and past paced and therefore engaging.

Cons

Sometimes the pace of change can be overwhelming. Even when change is for the better, it takes coordination and planning and listening to w sure we adapt and execute well. Leaders are trying hard and initiative owners are as well - but we haven’t found our groove yet at this new level of commitment to agility and innovation.

Advice to Management

Continue the great work on the next era of strategy, and be thoughtful about how to help the leaders ALL lead the changes and implications that will come from it. Driving it to all levels of the organization will help us be coordinated in our efforts. It’s an amazing privilege to work for an organization that is so future forward while remaining grounded in the customers that we do it all for.

Pros

Great coworkers and lots of opportunity for advancement and continuing education.

Cons

In order to advance you would often need to relocate. Lots of meetings and conference calls.

Advice to Management

Less meetings!

Pros

Nice people and corporate culture

Cons

No work life balance at all

Pros

Love working here, great work life balance, great team.

Cons

Products are not always up to par with industry, but other than that things are good. Compensation is not always the best.

Pros

Great flexibility in work location Reasonable compensation Challenging work Progressive organization Room for career growth

Cons

Extremely political (very much who you know and not what you know) Constantly looking at the next shiny thing rather than leveraging the excellent technology already in use. Great values stated but not followed.

Advice to Management

Suggest that promotions should be based on merit - not just who can talk the best but those that can actually execute on their words.

Pros

medical and dental benefits, fair wages

Cons

non-flexible hours, could be very lonely

Pros

Great work life balance Great work environment Flexible schedule Great benefits

Cons

Pay could be a little better

Pros

Really are none but it pays the bills

Cons

Doesn't pay overtime despite overtime being worked everyday. Difficult culture. Hard work and long hours. Confusing and messy systems. After doing the math I realized despite working 9 hour days after taxes and they don't let you get out the retirement plan so I only made 85 dollars a day so I left.
