Pros

the company itself is a great place - the call center - not so much. once you are in there very difficult to "get out of call center to any other position"

Cons

lack of recognition, very difficult to move from call center to any other position - you can make moves inside call center though - but forget - ie branch; back office... better learn to read email and updates before your shift, after your shift and in between calls (on your own time) you also better not have to pee very often... you get docked everytime you leave your desk - there are 2 10 min breaks and a 45 min lunch you have about 2 mins of "personal time " to go ... otherwise forget it - the monitoring dept is a really strange set there are only a few people to monitor over 1000 -

Pros

Easy enough to request time off. ( In the call center not branches) Remote, 9 occasional absence days and you start with 3 weeks vacation. I had some really great coworkers

Cons

The Burnout! Back to back to back to back calls. Ridiculously unrealistic expectations of us. They come up with a new buzzword and go all in. Recently their buzzword is hospitality. However it's anything but hospitable. PNC causes mistakes for customers and then we get yelled at. With absolutely no way to fix it promptly. They take double payments all the time and customers call in ripping mad and we have to say oh sorry our bad will send you a check in 2 weeks but we got to make sure the money clears first. It's truly insane. Another buzzword is empathy, and again they don't have much empathy for us. In a shift you can easily take 70 calls. The matrix every year gets more impossible to meet. And in every year they change how they're going to write you up. They went from six instances down to one. Just make one mistake and you're written up. I hope they can RESOLVE this issue for themselves.
