      Pros

      - Flexible schedule with the ability to work from home - Good laptop and printer - Mobile and very independent

      Cons

      - Ineffective and inefficient systems compared to other banks - Little to no immediate support for technical questions (email inbox that can take several days to respond) - Mistakes are constantly made by FSRs, whom are responsible for closing your deals (ie: opening the wrong type of account, processing transfers incorrectly, processing mutual fund purchases for the incorrect amount, etc.) - Poor training (lengthy and ineffective phone/video coaching) - Lots of cold calling (calling CIBC clients for ‘financial planning’ or ‘financial review’) - Risk of customer no-shows can waste a lot of time - Inefficient CRM system - Lots of objection handling - Poor validation system that causes lots of frustration

      Business outlook

      Pros

      -People were friendly and would do coffee chats/one-on-one lunches. -Other interns were great. -Base compensation as an analyst is on the higher end.

      Cons

      -Feedback from intern manager only given at the end of a rotation differed greatly from what team members would directly tell me which was confusing. Makes me think people are only nice on the surface. -Team members prioritized some interns over others in terms of work given and time spent. -Teams in the same product group had wildly different work life balance with some working 70+ hours a week and others working close to 40. -Has high turnover overall due to lower compensation at the Director+ level.
