BMO Completes Acquisition of Bank of the West

BMO's acquisition of Bank of the West brings nearly 1.8 million customers to BMO and extends its banking presence through more than 500 additional branches and commercial and wealth offices in key U.S. growth markets. As the 8th largest bank in North America by assets, BMO now has a strong position in three of the top five U.S. markets, a footprint in 32 states, expanded national specialty commercial businesses and a digital banking platform helping customers make real financial progress in all 50 states.

On a sidenote: BMO's starting wage for Associate Bankers (tellers) is $20/hr here in the Midwest.  I don't know by how much they'd adjust the wage for those in higher COL areas but I thought it worth mentioning if anyone is looking for a place to start in banking.  Also, they DO have part-time positions--usually 10-2 for lunch time coverage of the FT Associate Bankers--and even PT workers get benefits.  BMO hiring areas  I'm sure the opportunities will be added to once the merge is 100% and vacant roles have been assessed.
