BB&T reviews

- Annual Performance plans 2% raise if a Very Good Performer? PATHETIC - Very low pay compared to other places - Terrible management - Managers are worked to death- averaged 12 hour days and worked Saturdays - Conference calls- how about work smarter, not harder? If you want sales performance, dont tie your employees up on a conference call that is pointless - No recognition - Managers who get recognized work in branches where everything gets handed to them - Dont work for the retail side - Senior management is selfish and wont promote you to a job you want if they want you to stay where you are. - Some how confidential conversations go public and all of the employees find out - managements lack of professionalism is hidden in the professional dress they want their employees to wear (panty hose? Seriously?... its 90 degrees outside)... - Overall..... they need new management- its important for employees to see that you care about your family as much as you care about your job....

- the work environment depends on who you work for - they have this thing called "management discretion" which means whatever is in the policy manual is simply a suggestion and the managers can basically do what they want - NO training, but if you want to take courses at the local tech college go for it. Plus they won't reimburse you and you probably won't get to work in your area of study - LIMITED ability to transfer to other departments. If you're lucky enough to pass the HR established requirements, then you get to apply for 1 position every 3 months. - NO significant raises. IT's been on the 0% to1% path for several years now and you practically have to walk on water to get 1% - unlimited overtime. you are welcome to work as many hours as you can for salary with minimal comp time. Again, it all depends on which area of the company you work for, but there are more IT areas that are similar to what is described here - but there are rumors of happy employees and good managers.
