Pros

Generous vacation time. Good benefits.

Cons

The micromanagement is off the charts. You get no less than 5 or 6 emails a day telling you what you have done or what you haven’t done. Upper management doesn’t want to hear ANYTHING you have to say about change that could make the customer experience better. Their systems (all 7 of them) are old and antiquated (with the exception of Salesforce). They don’t invest in technology. Your sales goal is a moving target. Branches are under staffed. They want you to push products on customers they don’t need.

Pros

Pros: • Great coworkers who foster a supportive team environment. • Strong commitment to community engagement and involvement. • Attractive annual bonuses and competitive quarterly compensation.

Cons

Cons: • High levels of sales pressure, which can be overwhelming at times. • Concerns about management, particularly after the hiring of former Bank of America leadership; implementation of their sales culture. • Recent changes to branch names (now referred to as Financial Banking Centers) suggest a shift towards Bank of America's practices. • Many branch managers are on performance improvement plans and face pressure to meet 100% of their goals weekly, leading to a stressful work environment. • There are reports of unethical sales practices that may require regulatory attention. Overall: BMO offers a positive work atmosphere with great benefits, but the increasing sales pressure and management issues may raise concerns for potential employees.
