Pros

The 401k matching was above average, tuition reimbursement was available (not great but better than nothing), and the company promotes tolerance and acceptance of all people.

Cons

I worked in 3 different departments during the 5+ years I worked at TD. Retail banking - great place to start for young people (look to move on after a year) or for part time mom's who just want to get out of the house, earn a small check - TONS OF PRESSURE TO MAKE SALES.... Loan Processing - absolutely inundated with work, unrealistic expectations from management, negative environment; Small Business Credit Center - this was the best of the 3 environments and most enjoyable, least pressured job. Still not a team environment. OVERALL - taking all jobs into account I can tell you it is VERY HARD to ever move up here. One step up is a measly 3% raise. Salary is awful here (probably different for exec's). In 2010 I started at $12 an hour. When I left I was making $17+ and I always had extremely good reviews. Most people never get the coveted "E" for excellent, I got it several times consecutively but still no chance to move up here. Every job I got by applying to a million postings and barely getting any interviews, but I interview well and usually landed the job if i could get the interview. None of my job changes were due to simply receiving a promotion or networking. It was just like applying to jobs at an outside company. START HERE BUT LEAVE AFTER A YEAR IF YOU CAN!!!!

Pros

Wish there was some to share.

Cons

Working in Talent Acquisition here was one of the most frustrating experiences of my career. The culture felt incredibly toxic, with management frequently creating an environment where employees’ concerns were dismissed or reframed in a way that made them question their own experiences. Communication lacked transparency, expectations changed constantly, and support from leadership was minimal. Hiring decisions often felt inconsistent, with factors outside of merit seemingly carrying more weight than skills and qualifications. As someone in TA, that made it difficult to feel confident in the integrity of the recruitment process. Management created a culture of fear rather than collaboration. Feedback was rarely constructive, accountability was one-sided, and employee well-being did not appear to be a priority. Morale was consistently low, turnover was high, and it was difficult to see a path for growth.
