Pros

Really great, hard working people. It's easy to make friends here and never want to leave. Benefits are good if you live in Alabama Good PTO and 11 paid holidays Weekly emails that give employees advice on finance, which I think is really cool.

Cons

Seriously ancient/burdensome business processes. I'm pretty sure Regions invented the "we've always done it this way" slogan, and "complexity is our middle name." Work/Life balance is poor depending on the department, you may have to work nights, overnights, and weekends. No more remote work unless you were already hired remote and live too far from an office. Benefits are terrible if you live outside of Alabama. Nothing is covered, you will spend more money paying for the insurance then it will cover for basic/annual appointments - would recommend purchasing private health insurance instead. Annual bonus and merit increase were the worst I've ever seen at any company I've worked for, which was surprising given company size and how well their earnings reports are.

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.
