Pros

There are many opportunities to learn if given that opportunity. Promotions are available and can be easily accessed. Customers are awesome and love to just come in to the branch to say hello. Fellow employees are wonderful and so helpful.

Cons

District managers especially the one we had are awful. Constantly badgering employees to make clients open accounts they do not need, continually writing employees up for lack of sales and they do not give direction nor understand that the economy plays a big part in this.

Pros

Pros: • Great coworkers who foster a supportive team environment. • Strong commitment to community engagement and involvement. • Attractive annual bonuses and competitive quarterly compensation.

Cons

Cons: • High levels of sales pressure, which can be overwhelming at times. • Concerns about management, particularly after the hiring of former Bank of America leadership; implementation of their sales culture. • Recent changes to branch names (now referred to as Financial Banking Centers) suggest a shift towards Bank of America's practices. • Many branch managers are on performance improvement plans and face pressure to meet 100% of their goals weekly, leading to a stressful work environment. • There are reports of unethical sales practices that may require regulatory attention. Overall: BMO offers a positive work atmosphere with great benefits, but the increasing sales pressure and management issues may raise concerns for potential employees.
