Pros

Great team environment, perfect entry level career for anyone in college pursuing a role in finance.

Cons

Fifth Third Bank has been undergoing significant changes on its staffing as some regions currently have seen a lot of upward momentum in promotions and hiring for internal roles. Expect there to be a brief period of short staffing, depending on the branch you are hired for.

Pros

Depending on your team, you can meet some wonderful people.

Cons

Lay off culture is real. If you want a promotion, you better be super friendly with management because that’s the only way you move up. Management is generally awful. Most departments are super toxic. I had one promotion during my time and was told it was coming so many times. Forget getting a decent pay.
