Pros

You get a paycheck and you work with very nice teammates who are just trying to survive.

Cons

You work 60 hours a week to earn a paycheck. Management claims they are making changes to the department so that people aren't being chained to their desk, from 6am to 8pm or until we are told we can leave. Issues in the department have been around long before COVID. Talented people continue to leave. We are highly micro-managed. No meaningful praise or thanks. They have ridiculous goals for people to meet every day that is not attainable so it requires you to work 60 hours a week. This job does not have a work life balance. So if you do not have a life, this job is for you!

Pros

Compared with similarly sized institutions, PNC offers decent work-life balance. But it all depends on who your manager is. People are generally very helpful and always willing to answer questions. For the most part, I enjoyed my time there.

Cons

Compensation is frequently ranked among the bottom percentile in the industry, and this was no exception for myself. They do not take into account the cost of living of a certain area when you are in their analyst program. For example, someone in Nashville would have to the same compensation as someone with the same position in San Francisco. During my time there, it definitely felt very “laissez faire”. Communication among deal team members was also a bit unpolished, with juniors frequently having to play catch up. The bureaucracy and level of siloing between lines of business is awful. It slows down deal execution and overall efficiency.
