Pros

Regions Bank is always hiring for new positions. Because of their numerous locations, you can always find a position available somewhere in the vacinity of your living area. Also, Regions Bank is very locally operated. Most customers continue to come to one particular bank location and tend not to stray, so you get to know them on a daily basis. Regions Bank rarely has other employees from other branches coming to " fill in " when there is a shortage of employees due to vacations or other circumstances, therefore you have a better chance to get to know your coworkers .

Cons

Regions Bank has a very high turnover rate. Many employees get hired on with the assumptioin that they will be with the bank for a certain amount of time. However due to the large turnover rate, a number of employees are dismissed or transferred to other branches because their branch didn't have enough business or because of other setbacks. These are situations that should be addressed before hiring new employees. Regions Bank has a reputation of assuming that long time employees must take on the role of senior positions, meaning when a position of management or seniority comes along, that employee should take it or at least apply for it.

Pros

great perks, included a park on the facility, cafeteria, free gym. Health insurance plans were available, medical was a little on the expensive side but availbale and cheper when compared to similar companies in Tennessee. Good work environment from other co-workers and managers/ supervisors

Cons

since many people usually stay for a long period of time with the company there are not many positions created, and with the mergers of Planters Bank and AmSouth less jobs were created but terminated

Pros

Pay package is very very good. However, lot of sales stress to go along with that. Regions/AmSouth pays about the highest for all positions from tellers on up. There is a lot of talk about "do the right thing" but that is just talk not really what happens.

Cons

Sales pressure is excessive and cheating to make sales goals is widespread through the bank. The turnover from tellers to business bankers, private bankers, managers etc. is unreal, even higher than the banking industry norm. The sales and marketing is very good, the bank spends a lot of money in that area. Some business decisions are made fast, but others are very very slow. The computer system is ok, better than other banks in terms of ease to use.
