Pros

- large corporation, good career opportunities, strong retail bank and credit card division. There is a lot of opportunity to move around within the corporation. Management rewards fairly well with strong performance. Pay for education including stock licenses and other relevant courses.

Cons

- weakening capital markets platform, penchant for senior management to take higher risks for minimal rewards, limiting comp. The bank has made some American type errors in their corp portfolio and are know paying for it. CIBC world markets used to battle DS for top wholesaler in Canada, those days are for now over. It may be a while until CIBC world markets gets their act together.

Pros

A large company with opportunities to transfer from one department to another. Opportunity to work on large systems and databases, with a large client base.

Cons

Compensation slightly lower than peer banks, even though still reasonably competitive. Poor profit results mean hits to employee bonuses. Training is poor. Benefits package is not very good, compared to other banks.
