      Was not interested in continuing after training program

      Financial advisor trainee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good benefits. Wonderful staff always willing to assist if time/their workload permits. Very inclusive. Work-life balance is okay.

      Cons

      Lack of organization on a branch-level, in company's strategic direction, and in training program. Not enough employees at branch resulted in few people dealing with extremely high volumes of customers; ultra-high stress environment, unmanageable. Scotiabank recently did not exhibit loyalty to its employees by letting go of huge volumes of long-standing, experienced staff as part of the Wave... that alone showed me this is not a company where I wish to launch my career.
