Pros

Good pay and benefits. yearly bonus. Good amount of vacation time.

Cons

Bad culture. lazy workers, who do minimal and get rewarded for it. People will nit pick and see what they can tell on.

Pros

Vacation time- they give good vacation time, but it is earned throughout the year, you have to back pay for vacation hours that you use if you leave the company.

Cons

I changed a couple of positions at BMO and it is sad to say whichever department I went to it is all the same. The way the company is run is just horrible. Management really needs training all across the board. If you like feeling like a number than this company is for you. They really don’t care about you as a person. The work-life balance is nonexistent. Management really doesn't care if you have a family. The turnover rate is very high in every department so there are only people who have been there for 20+ years and new people, all of the time, there is no consistency with employees. It is very hard to move up in the company since they would much rather hire outside of BMO than internally.

Pros

Technology is scheduled to improve in 2019 Senior managers / upper management cares

Cons

Many of my co-workers have a poor work ethic for example, talking and texting on a cell phone all day seems to be tolerated. And I do mean all day. At times, co-workers are away from their desk for hours socializing. Where is the accountability?
