Pros

BMO has a lot of policies and procedures. There are rules and methodologies for almost every aspect of every job. This company is a great place to learn how to work well in a large organization. Most people that work there are friendly and helpful. You can work as hard as you want to and move up the ranks. Or, depending on your stage in life...if you have other priorities such as having or raising children, BMO is a good place to work as they understand the family/work dynamic and dont put too much pressure on their workers. There are good part time opportunities and you can switch back from full to part time fairly easily.

Cons

The abundance of rules combined with the large size of the organization results in an organization that does not encourage innovation and creativity. Pay is pretty good but not outstanding. It takes a long time to advance.
