TD Employee Reviews about "work environment"

Pros

- Laid back work environment - Presence in Downtown core - Walking distance from amazing eateries - Nice health benefits

Cons

- This place is all about politics. - Incompetence has gone up to sickening degree and at every level in Employee Enablement. - Inexperienced people are controlling the reigns. You may find a manager, who worked as a customer service agent all his/her life, leading a team of engineers . - HR has deliberately turned a blind eye to the prevailing cronyism and conflict of interest. Discussions with them are useless as it always gets political in the end. - They re-org once or twice EVERY year, selling that as a good step towards working better. However, the root cause of these re-orgs is incompetence within the senior leadership. They cannot find the right people for the right job. These are the people who are unfamiliar with technology. The best they can do is to login to a portal or use excel. Yet, they lead a technology segment.

Pros

Supportive Managers, good work environment. Employee recognition

Cons

High metrics demand. Clients can be extremely rude and can be hard to deal with. Can get overwhelming with high call volumes

Pros

Potential for growth within the company. Depending on your relationship w your managers and how long you've been w the company your managers will help you to get to the position you want to be at. You have to show you deserve a promotion. Sick days are, in my experience, always accommodated. There's always a manager you'll be able to find you can trust to speak too. You'll always find a friend!

Cons

Some branches have toxic employees. From tellers to FA's, managers can only TRY to enforce a good work environment. Racism runs rampant and employees from minority groups feel closed off and stick to their own ethnicity because of not wanting to listen to racist comments. Office gossip and advisors calling tellers names or full out swearing in front of or at customers happens and managers aren't able to stop it, don't see it as a big deal, or are afraid to say something to those advisers. Politics! Some branch managers solely care about the sales team and could care less of what happens or is said to the tellers by fellow employees or by customers. A lot of corporate standards are different from branch to branch. Each branch is pretty much run however the branch manager wants it to be run and has their own policies set up. Some customers can be extremely verbally abusive or even physically. This isn't ALL branches. From the 4/5 I've worked at this has always been the case unfortunately.

Pros

Great training Awesome work perks Competitive work environment

Cons

Lot of pressure Unorganized; clients are priority over employee always
