Pros

Benefits package is good. You don't have to wait until someone dies to get promoted. You gain alot of experience in the banking industry.

Cons

Hours of operation: 7:30am - 8pm Mon-Fri, Sat 7:30am - 6pm and Sun from 11am-4pm with 10 employees (including store manager who is never scheduled to be in the store. Also includes 3 Part time employees). So really the store is opened over 80 hrs per week with only 10 employees. I'd like to see regional try to make that schedule work! I feel like I have sold my life, I live at my job. The stores are severely understaffed but nobody seems to notice than the overworked tellers and customer service rep. Tellers have to stand most of the day as there are only 2 chairs for tellers. The coin machine is a disaster. It works fine but customers still complain that they are shorted, changing the bags and lugging them to the vault is an absolute nightmare. Customer service reps have to also be tellers and tellers also have to be customer service reps at times when the skeleton schedule that we are able to make doesn't work. Only 1 employee can be on vacation at a time because of the lack of staffing. What if 2 people share the same birthday and wants to get off or something? There's even 1 store I worked at where no one is allowed to take Christmas off! Most store managers do no work. The only thing store managers are good for is to take complaints from customers who wants to go above the supervisor on duty, in which case the manager still has to go back to the supervisor on duty because they don't know anything about operations. The head teller and the assistant head teller are constantly stressed out.

Pros

The management team was supportive, and the branch had a strong team-oriented culture. Because it was a smaller branch, employees had the opportunity to build meaningful relationships, collaborate across roles, and learn from one another. Team members regularly shared ideas, provided constructive feedback, and supported each other's professional growth, creating a positive and rewarding work environment.

Cons

The main areas for improvement would be compensation and scheduling flexibility. At the time, I felt the pay was somewhat low relative to my previous leadership experience in retail management. While compensation may be competitive for some entry-level banking roles, I would have appreciated a stronger alignment between pay and prior supervisory experience. Aside from that, my decision to leave was based on pursuing a different career path rather than any issues with the company itself. TD Bank offers a professional work environment, supportive teams, and valuable opportunities for growth and development within the banking industry.
