Pros

-Great people work here - great opportunity to learn about finances and banking

Cons

-Horrible pay with an increasingly stressful work environment. -Customers are difficult and entitled -Difficult to move up- tenures are increasingly long -Sales goals are ridiculous- the bank is trying to milk as much as possible from its personal banking clients before tech takes over -you will find yourself doing some shady things to hit those difficult sales numbers. Managers usually know that this behaviour is going on -work life balance is horrible. You will soon start to live and breathe td. Work stresses will become home stresses. -td has thousands of people outside their door waiting for a job. If you can't keep up, or can't hit your numbers.. You are out the door. No company loyalty.

Pros

The management team was supportive, and the branch had a strong team-oriented culture. Because it was a smaller branch, employees had the opportunity to build meaningful relationships, collaborate across roles, and learn from one another. Team members regularly shared ideas, provided constructive feedback, and supported each other's professional growth, creating a positive and rewarding work environment.

Cons

The main areas for improvement would be compensation and scheduling flexibility. At the time, I felt the pay was somewhat low relative to my previous leadership experience in retail management. While compensation may be competitive for some entry-level banking roles, I would have appreciated a stronger alignment between pay and prior supervisory experience. Aside from that, my decision to leave was based on pursuing a different career path rather than any issues with the company itself. TD Bank offers a professional work environment, supportive teams, and valuable opportunities for growth and development within the banking industry.
