CIBC Employer Reviews

I find CIBC a good place to work overall , I find difficulties in the career advancement field because its mostly geared at sales so that makes it tough for someone who wants to go into the operational side like me but overall Ive met great people and have enjoy most of my time there

A typical day involves working in a fast paced environment to meet the needs of internal customer. This involves a great deal of technical knowledge and teamwork with co-workers who are friendly and helpful. This helped me gain a lot of valuable working experience that I couldn't get from college.

My job in a day consist of appointments that a colleague or myself has scheduled. I also make calls to schedule more appointments through out the week. I work with customers on helping them meet there financial goals.

as a people manager, im involved with day to day activities and ensuring our success monthly towards the monthly and yearly goals. the hardest part of the job is to keep 100 people motivated and moving towards the same goals. A lot of that is accomplished by ensuring the goal is set and communications is clear. Its important to have everyone buy in. – more... The most enjoyable part is when you succeed the goals set out. – less

A typical day involves working in a fast paced environment to meet the needs of banking clients. This involves a great deal of product knowledge and teamwork with co-workers.

I was regularly taken advantage of since I obviously have a much better work ethic than my co-workers. As well as maintaining a lot of duties on my position I seemed to be the go-to girl regarding equipment malfunctions, decisions over accepting cheques, provided supervisory over-rides, cash/coin supply throughout the day. Overwhelming sometimes because – more... I was still expected to provide great service during these interruptions. My valid issues regarding my overall job requirements fell on deaf ears with management who are much more concerned with how many products are getting sold than offering any assistance to serving walk-in clients which include business clients. I feel I was expected to manage the front-line staff as well. I was often disappointed with the lack of management support I actually received. – less

Get to work, have a meeting and get on the phone. They hound you about your dialer adherence consistently. Management is horrible unless your a top performer. Co-worker amazing.
