Pros

Great benefits package, free banking, employee share purchase plan, job opportunities across Canada, 3 weeks vacation

Cons

Incompetent management, lack of respect for employees, lack of coaching for professional growth, advancement usually based on branch needs/politics rather than skills of individuals, bonuses are very low $1200-$1700 on a $36k salary (compared to jobs of equal responsibilities at other companies), complaints are not taken seriously, many individuals employed at cibc have been employees for 20 years+ in the same position and are not happy with their jobs - it is apparent and makes it a negative atmosphere to work in.

Pros

The NY location is close to Grand Central Station

Cons

Slow Canadian culture that finds it challenging to meet US regulatory standards. Executives play favorites and gaslight employees, if you voice your opinion, they either silence you or try to manage you out with exaggerated "performance issues"
