Pros

The paid holidays are great, the consistency can be something some enjoy, and you get to build some pretty great relationships with the people you help out.

Cons

There is no loyalty anymore. Understand that when entering this job at this Company. The Company promotes a culture of backstabbing, nepotism, and incompetence, at the middle of the Company. The "All in!" motto is completely one sided. Regions will eat you up, use you, and spit you out. From Branch managers to the ROMs, and above. Metrics for daily operations and bonuses are unattainable at many levels. A Branch that mainly works with Commercial Clients is not going to be opening many personal credit cards or getting HELOCs from a business, but the metric demands we do it. The constant stress of daily threats of "you can be fired if x,y,z, isn't done perfectly", are insufferable. There is no room for mistakes or being human, yet they demand you have the most empathy for Clients. In the event of a life emergency & the quantity of hours needed is beyond your limited Paid time off, the first day you are absent without PTO you will receive consistent threatening Emails from HR about termination if you can't come in...So hope to God you don't get in an accident or severe illness and still want to keep your job.

Pros

The overall bank culture - they truly show that they value their employees, and fully vested in ensuring that is communicated and shown. I was completely impressed with my onboarding experience, and each day since my start date reaffirms that I made the right decision in accepting their offer. I could immediately tell that they invested in providing adequate tools to make our job functions efficient. There is also a large array of Learning & Development modules that are available to enhance your career. They are always sending out surveys to obtain feedback from the employees about their experience whenever they may have to engage with another area. The atmosphere has also been very welcoming and everyone seems so genuinely happy. They have provided me with a work life balance and good benefits. Regions definitely has identified the ingredients that I believe factor into why one would describe them as a great place to work. If the employees feel appreciated and are happy, it resonates. Its that kind of attitude that will be naturally also extended to our customers because its a embedded culture. I enjoy getting up and going to work everyday because I feel as if I am now working for a company that values the people they employ - and also care about how that also positively impacts their customers.

Cons

I can see that there are some gaps whereas one area may not fully understand what is going on in another - and because of that there may be some unnecessary overlap.
