Pros

Autonomy Flexible work hours And not a whole lot else that other banks aren't offering

Cons

Everything Internal processes are broken and time consuming Technology is terrible and slow Advisors are overworked Expectations are unrealistic (even compared to other banks) Promotions are tenure bases, and not based on merit Variable compensation is gone and base bonuses are 12% of base salary compared to well over 30% (and even 100% for top performers in fiscal 2021) in the past The "Imperial Service Offer" is heavily diluted with non-qualifying clients who burden advisors and detract from providing good service to our best clients CIBC's mortgage business sucked for so long now everyones focus is on mortgages and we have forgotten the other parts of our business

Pros

Slightly higher pay than TD

Cons

Toxic environment, high pressure for sales , and most confusing bonus structure that you won’t even know how get it end of year. Senior advisors will dump their mortgage clients on their book , which they already got paid for it , on new advisors book, so when mortgage get paid off of transfer to another banks it comes of from your book and net sales. For example, if you bring $ 5 million new business into your book and $ 10 million mortgages get paid off or transfer out from your book, you are net sales is minus $5million ! And you have to bring another $million to just bring your net sales to $0 lol Funny thing is most of those senior advisors never seen and spoke to clients before , they just got paid for it!!
