Pros
Pension is nice. Not a whole lot of that around anymore. Buildings are pretty and have nice landscaping. They also, at my workplace offer free parking!!
Cons
Require a 6 day work week totaling 40 hours. No quality of life. I was told this is what is best for the bank, what about me, your employee? Sales goals go up, commission goes down. "The bank that defines great customer service", this is NOT so. BMO only cares about sales. They really care less about the customer unless you bring us all of your money. Once we have your money, you are then a #. You are nobody. POOR technology, promises of updates that never come. Always changing the rules, no consistency. As an employee, they definitely do not care about you. Good luck requesting time off, there are not enough employees to cover you absence. The bank runs on a skeleton crew ALWAYS, every branch. EXTREMELY micro-managed. SalesForce, a micromanagement tool, is used to track every breath you take. Management tells you to falsify input into this system. That will give you insight to the ethics at BMO Harris. Heed my warning.
