Pros
- The accessibility support infrastructure is impressive (but a bit outdated when it comes to neurodiversity training). They have partnerships with the right organizations though. - Unlimited sick days after three months of working there. They need to be approved by the manager though. - A lot of the roles are federally regulated so you get access to more supports than at non-regulated organizations.
Cons
- The experience you have around inclusion at such a large institution is highly dependent on the manager and their values. They’re largely responsible for deciding if you can get funds approved to take tests/certifications to grow further in the company so you need to get along. Consider how busy the branch is and your ambitions before applying. If you are committed to making your way in banking you might want to be at a high traffic branch that’s fully staffed where you can learn as much as possible. If you need more work-life balance I’d recommend a slower-paced location. It’s harder to move unless you’re promoted once you’re in.
