Pros

It's a job. If you need one, they're always hiring due to high turnover.

Cons

- if you want to know what it's like to be managed by the blind, apply here. - depending on which sub-group you work for, management can be really horrible. - do not take a job in the data management / quality assurance team (you've been warned). - morale is low. Workers are miserable. Nice people, but very miserable. - HR doesn't seem to do a good job in screening for good people managers. As a result, the workers are miserable from the lack of appreciation and professionalism that middle mgmt has shown. - look at other bank reviews by employees and you won't see nearly as much negative sentiment as you do with cibc. - consider this review a favour to all who are thinking of applying. You're welcome.

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"
