Hyper-competitive and they like it that way.
Pros
The interview process was fine I guess?
Cons
When I started, I was warned about a hyper-competitive employee who wanted my job. I was warned by managers and employees. When they struck and started to ruin my reputation, no one had my back. They had completely forgotten what they told me months ago. I started having panic attacks and desperately called HR for help. They didn't help. I was able to find a different spot, and there the other bankers were incredibly mean to me. Honestly, I ended up with PTSD from this place. I know, what you're saying, "Hey, maybe it's your fault!" I'll tell you: I never, ever had a problem with my fellow employees/reports until I went here. The environment BMO fosters just creates this situation where everyone is trying to climb over everyone else. It's gross.
