Pros

- Largest bank in Canada so good deal experience and ability to learn from very bright people - If you take initiative and are keen, there is a chance to take on alot of responsability very early on in your career. -

Cons

- Sometimes in large organizations it is difficult to get attention of senior management - There is too much focus on the final result and not enough focus on the people - Often people have a tendency to get "too comfortable" which can lead to lost opportunities - The culture rewards people who are "in your face" whereas more reserved people tend to be dismissed -

Pros

Stable platform due to parent company, so less concerns about being layed off. In research, broad industry coverage and senior analysts are reluctant as they know as long as they do a decent job, they will be compensated well. The associates have little to no room to grow unless in rare cases, analysts are fired, and even then it is unlikely that associate gets promoted. Not the same stress and hours of bulge brackets and is likely what makes people stay around and build longer term careers there (again, referring to more senior analysts).

Cons

At the lowest-end of industry compensation. Research associates make $75-85k with ~$20k in bonus.
