Pros

Room for advancement. I started as a part-time teller and within 3 months was promoted to full-time. Within my firts year I was promoted to a personal banker. Training. Wesbanco is big on training. If you want to further your career at wesbanco you can usually get paid training. Sometimes that depends on your banking center manager. Great benefits! Medical coverage is very affordable and personal and holiday pay is outstanding!

Cons

Upper management has no clue what really goes on at branch level. Goals and expectations are set way to high in some markets to even obtain. Branch management lack of knowledge. Many current managers do not know simple procedures or basic banking product knowledge. I feel like alot of them were hired on because they knew somebody. Its all about politics with the upper management. I geel my manager should know how to do almost every job within the branch and that is definitely not the cae in most. No recognition for doing good work. Alot of great people wprk for wesbanco and bust their butts to meet goals but usually are not recognized for it. But man if tou don't meet those goals they let ypu know what a peice of crap your are and how ypu let everyone down by not doing so.

Pros

Benefit and PTO and the hours

Cons

Working for WesBanco was once a positive and rewarding experience, but under the current management structure, morale has significantly declined. There is a clear disconnect between leadership and the day-to-day realities of how the system operates and how work actually gets done. Decisions are being made by individuals who do not appear to fully understand workflow, staffing limitations, or operational demands. There is also a concerning double standard in expectations. Management is permitted extended lunches outside the office, while frontline employees are required to remain on site sometimes without a proper lunch break because we are running on a skeleton crew. Employees are expected to continuously cover operations without adequate relief, which is both unsustainable and unfair. The burden consistently falls on the same employees who show up every day, keep the office functioning, and meet customer needs despite staffing shortages. These employees deserve leadership support, fair treatment, and adequate coverage—not burnout. If WesBanco wants to retain dedicated staff and maintain performance standards, leadership must address staffing gaps, enforce consistent expectations across all levels, and demonstrate accountability. Without meaningful change, morale and retention will continue to suffer.
