ScotiaMcleod reviews about "benefit"

Feast or famine, you're given a phone and a laptop, and told to go bring in business. Low salary to start.

fully on-site, compensation, stressful work environment

Upper Management puts a lot of stress on the average employee

Limited upside until team leads retire. Heavy focus on sales with aggressive targets. Pay appears below industry average. Remote work frowned upon.

Their systems are slow, dated, and glitchy.

No where to grow really and bad salary

- Base salaries were quite low so you definitely need to have an Advisor who is willing to pay a good override in order to keep up with living expenses - Technology was so-so, need more investment

Base salary isn’t great and incentive is up to advisors so your pay can fluctuate. No remote work option for most roles. Office itself doesn’t offer much compared to other companies.

- salary is one of the lowest I have every seen as they haven't updated their salary levels as you'll get easily 10k more at any investment firm - advisors are not fun to deal with - there is no sense of community or support
