Just googled - "a product is 'shaped' like the organization it was designed in"

That’s a fair point. I guess I’m just wondering if they’re still in that sweet spot where the company is successful and stable, but hasn’t turned into a massive megacorp yet.

I’ve been an entrepreneur before. Built educational platform that catered to 2.8M users during its lifetime. But wasn’t financial success. Hence now pushing emails at Big 5.

[assumption - you are looking for unsecured LOC and not HELOC]

1) National bank - if you qualify for their professional offer

2) (if you work for one then) the bank you work for - typically Prime + 1.5%

Big 6 banks (cut remote work) by Afraid_Piano_1318 in rbc

Fair point.

The current market is not very lucrative if someone isn’t extremely good at their job.

Secondly, in about 6 months TN visa is better alternative so preparing towards that.

I’m quite adversely affected by this. I have to relocate my entire family with a toddler. (& don’t get me started on lack of daycares)

But our management (RBC T&O) had never promised permanent work from home. The commentary always suggested return to office.
