Pros

Some groups had a lot of internal politics, but mine was absolutely wonderful. I worked with kind, intelligent, patient people who always had my back and encouraged me to succeed. I loved my job and would've stayed for the long haul if not for the merger. Employee 401K match and annual profit sharing, unlimited free cokes and juice, and plenty of opportunities to travel across the Southeast with a great group of co-workers!

Cons

Audit was very clique-focused. If you weren't with the "in" crowd, you were basically screwed. And if someone with influence didn't like you or were intimidated by you - again, screwed.

Pros

Hours, decent vacation, training material is adequate.

Cons

Regions core values are a joke, they don't do what is right by the customer, they don't put people first, and they DON'T focus on the customer. Its all about numbers. In the first quarter of 2010, 121 branches are being closed corp-wide. Sales pressure is relentless and is seriously turning away quality customers. Product-pushing ruined every bank that ever made it the primary focus. They hire managers with no banking experience that are clueless to proper policy and procedures.

Pros

Right now the best reason to work for Regions is my boss. I believe that is the key to success. If you don't have someone to support you, you might as find another job. Im not sure how the promotions work at Regions but at my last job it was based on performance. I was told that I could earn up to 15% of my salary in commission. As of right now I have not seen one bit of commission. They don't tell you that to get your commission everyone in the branch must meet their goals/ Teamworks and that the gallup score must be in the green for three months.

Cons

Sell, sell, sell. No matter how much you do you are always required to make phone calls and sales. Very fast paced. Honestly, I don't mind the calling part. I just don't like the fact that their are no individual goals. If I could earn commission on my individual work I would be making a lot more money. In the banking world you either need to know someone or have lots of experience to get a good position. If you don't have fun working your way up. I suggest moving every couple of years to maximize your salary and position.
