Pros

Pay and benefits Strong brand and industry presence

Cons

It’s important for RBC to address the concerning issue of certain managers misrepresenting situations and making false claims against advisors, which can have serious consequences on their careers. During my time at RBC, I personally experienced this when DG, a card manager, falsely accused me of something I never did, leading to an unjust warning. Situations like this create unnecessary stress and harm employees' well-being. Management should take proactive steps to ensure fairness, accountability, and transparency in leadership. Employees deserve to work in an environment where integrity is prioritized, and where their concerns are heard and addressed properly. DG, as a leader, should reflect on her actions and strive to foster a more ethical and respectful workplace. RBC must do better in holding management accountable.

Pros

Strong brand, reputation, work life balance, and business in general

Cons

LDP leadership development program. The program used to be the most desired and strong path towards an executive development. However, this has completely changed over the past two years given nee program management that brought in destructive and restrictive approach. Examples are: lack of flexibility to rotate in areas of personal interest, micro-management (even your COFFEE CHATS ARE MONITORED!!!!!!, creation of new rules in the middle of the program without any notice, that were not communicated during the recruitment process, that drastically jeopardize associates opportunities and experience. Authoritarian management that believes are dealing with kindergarten (when it’s actually top notch professionals and future leaders). They NO LONGER HAVE THE BEST INTEREST OF YOUR CAREER IN MIND. In the very last rotation, associates who receive phenomenal internal job offers are being forbidden to accept the job and bound to the program for another 2 or 3 months only for management EGO. This DOES NOT align with ONE RBC approach or associates careers.
