BMO Financial Group reviews

Slow/old technology, data issues for days, no action from management after continuously poor employee survey results (Pulse), low to no raises (sitting stagnant), low appreciation or acknowledgement for taking on new projects successfully, bonuses are paid out more on feelings/budget vs what an employee achieved throughout the year. Illusion of management wanting to help you find a new role within the bank (felt this one personally and have seen several co-workers get shot down in similar fashion). No sense of urgency or responsibility from lines of business to answer questions for other groups, almost ensuring anything important will have to be escalated to their boss, or higher yet to get answers in a reasonable time all the while upsetting somebody into doing their job!

-Below industry pay for the workload -No work-life balance -Some location did not have guards...if that location was unfortunately robbed, expect a security guard for about a month...your life is not worth the price tag of keeping someone longterm -Management was a joke that only cared about numbers and not quality or substance for customers -They want to be Chase Bank so bad but lack the $$$, resources like simple online/mobile app features, or the company software to accomplish much or up-sell to customers Overall, If you're a millennial, and used to a fast, fun, and used to a cool free spirited company atmosphere (Happy hours, parties, catered lunch day, ect), where you can grow professionally, this wont last long for you. This place is run by old guys with stiff suits who don't care much for the changing times we live in.
