Vantaggi
In midst of all this financial crisis, a top performing Canadian bank employee should be proud to be working for a healthy financial institution. BMO provides employees with several learning opportunities. The Institute For Learning (IFL) provides a world-class facility dedicated to specialised BMO training for a variety of roles, from the new graduate analyst through to senior executives. Certain groups are very strong in hiring for diversity.
Svantaggi
As with any large corporation, office politics at work can impede project timelines. In the software development world, it is understood that project managers are not necessarily technical savvy, but they should at least have capacity to understand what is going on. It's been in my experience that some project managers have no idea on what is actually being developed, resulting in time wasted on miscommunication.
