Pros

Challenge for growing the marketshare. Environment is evolving fast and the need for continuous learing is omnipresent. The atmosphere wiht the collegues is great and the senior management is open-minded. I would recomment Scotiabank as a great place to start, but after a couple of years it probably is better to switch to a competitor.

Cons

Lending policies don't allow us to be competitive in every situation. Salary is below average even for top performers, it is rather based on years of service. However, most competitors have adapted ans are offering better remuneration packages to their sales staff.

Pros

It looks good on the resume if you're just starting out - cash handling and customer service experience, and future employers have evidence that you're trustworthy. I liked it when I worked at small branches where the customers were nice and I could get to know them a little bit. I also learned some practical information about borrowing, credit, and investing that I didn't know before.

Cons

Bank hours are short, so it's not really possible to get a lot of hours in. A lot of employees had second jobs. The pay isn't good. When I worked at a busier downtown branch, I felt some of the customers were quite rude and condescending.
