Terrible Bank, Horrible Hours
Mar 31, 2023 - Premier Relationship Manager in Toronto, ONRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
-Slightly higher salary on average than the big 5 banks for similar position -Decent bonus if you hit your goal -Matching investments from bank for about $ 3k a year(con:No company shares, just a choice of same mutual funds)
Cons
-Very High Sales Goals/Quotas especially for investments -Most mutual funds have highest MERs compared to big 5 while having the worst performance making it a difficult sell -Expect to work free overtime everyday.
