Pros

Overall nice people and work life balance

Cons

Global bank CIBC acquired local The Private Bank- pretty much former Lasalle Bank employees-very clicky and mistrustful towards people who are not them. They promoted their own people left and right during acquisition. There is no diversity-in the sense that if you are not part of 'the bus', you might have a hard time. Your merit wont matter at this point. No accountability for management. A lot of people should never be in the position of managing their own dog, let alone other people, they are "outdated"

Pros

-People were friendly and would do coffee chats/one-on-one lunches. -Other interns were great. -Base compensation as an analyst is on the higher end.

Cons

-Feedback from intern manager only given at the end of a rotation differed greatly from what team members would directly tell me which was confusing. Makes me think people are only nice on the surface. -Team members prioritized some interns over others in terms of work given and time spent. -Teams in the same product group had wildly different work life balance with some working 70+ hours a week and others working close to 40. -Has high turnover overall due to lower compensation at the Director+ level.
