TD reviews

L&D (which at one time was revered) is nearly non-existent; the TD brand, culture and organization as a whole is inauthentic. Employees are no longer valued as they once were. Customers are charged far more then necessary for services (although this is true of most big banks). Sales revenue is of more importance than relationship building. What was once a great company to work for, with a brand you could stand behind is no longer in existence. TD does not value long time employees or pay well. Again, like most financial institutions, you have to jump ship to make the better salary. Staying loyal to one FI will not line your pockets.

Made the switch to the bank after having worked in a completely different industry for years. Thought the bank would be a good place to learn new things and offer stability. I joined after TD went through major restructuring and a number of layoffs. The churn continued through my stay there. Toxic office politics was abundant. You need to play the game as week or be left out in the cold. On the surface, the team displayed a positive attitude, but private conversations revealed an underlying dissatisfaction. Managers are yes men to the extreme. Cover your butt was a term I heard more times then anywhere I've ever worked. The fear of making independent decisions is palpable. This is what stifles the bank behemoth. It was very common for people to wait out the year, collect their bonus and leave, which sees a mass exodus at the start of the year. I happily resigned as I didn't fit in and felt bad for the disgruntled employees who stayed and were too afraid to leave their comfort zone.
