Pros

RBC is recognized as a top tier financial institution and there is a wide array of services they provide. The benefits are very good and you can learn a lot.

Cons

All the departments are very one sided. They know their role and only know how to do it. It seems as if managers are afraid when a young candidates gets hired and actually picks up quickly on the job that their job is in danger. Therefore they refuse to promote them in any way.

Pros

Stable work life balance. The culture is really great, very easy to work with complex management and managers. Willing to help you grow and learn with clients

Cons

Not a lot of room for growth unless you come in the door with that expectation. It can be very easy to get stuck in this role as your pay slowly increases and the job title mostly stays the same. Associate promotions and raises are rarely given and take a lot of coercion to get.
