Pros

None really, but could be completely dependent on my market. Wait, I did have fun at some events I went to and the places I got to volunteer with. I had some amazing clients who I will miss so so much.

Cons

Don’t expect to get credit and move up for bringing in any money if your manager doesn’t have that type of supportive vibe up front. I’ve never been more used. No scorecards; PB role is now gone; and RBs & PCBs no longer credit you for your referrals. When I first started I could atleast get paid for getting people to open accounts and credit cards, and referring them to our HLA & PCB and other associates. But now I get nothing and absolutely no recognition while fattening up others jackets, with numbers that wouldn’t exist if I didn’t personally take the time to find them our individual customers, face to face. I thought if I worked harder I’d actually move. Found leads bigger than some of our RBs and got customers to bring in serious $$$$ after introducing them to our associates and PCBs and my BM & PCB got a bonus; They got recognized. What did I get? Not a promotion. But I was saddled with the responsibility of two roles w bs pay, no incentives, no scorecards and wasted time. A product of bad management. “Diversity & inclusion” a lie The only reason I stayed so long is because I had a handful of amazing women as me who’ve since moved on.

Pros

1. One of the best banks, heavy on tech and AI, that makes my life simple 2. Bonus is consistent every year 3. The company is highly social and multicultural. 4. A lot of training program to upskill and develop.

Cons

1. A lot of administrative items to take care of, a significant portion is spent on meetings, meetings are called to establish an agenda for next meetings, and so on. 2. Layoffs, all year round- sometimes significant, while in the middle of delivery. If your manager is off-site/ another city/country, you are more likely to be impacted. 3. Departments may have skewed gender or racial ratios. It is best to stay away to avoid discrimination (to be fair, this has less to do with culture and more to do with who the head of the department is).
