Pros

The best attributes of the company include a friendly, laidback culture, great work/life balance, flexibility in hours, and generally supportive senior management. They make a decent effort to retain young, talented workers through mentorships and engaging them in other Bank related activities.

Cons

The aforementioned pros depends on the department you are working in. No formal mentoring program or leadership training provided to those interested. Pace of work is slow (although this might be a pro for some). Obtaining resources to work effectively is not easy. Most employees lack engagement and are not inspiried by the work they do. This is evidenced by empy floors by 5:00 pm and earlier on Fridays. This might be endemic to banking but the mindset at Regions is very traditional and outlook is not progressive. The Bank's footprint is primarily in the SE with headquarters in Birmingham so those wanting to move NE or West Coast should not look to work here.

Pros

HR is easily accessible. Some managers may be on your behind about work even though there are easier methods. Some managers with criticize you in front of other employees.

Cons

We have to use five of our vacation days consecutively so they can audit us. We aren’t assigned Saturday shifts close to our home, so some people have to drive farther for 3 hours of work (no mileage). Managers are hit or miss. PE can be affected by location, so try to get a good location.

Pros

There are Bonuses and employee appreciation days. Good rotation on working weekends.

Cons

Your bonus is paid out based on others performance. If you’re having a great quarter, but someone else is doing slightly better, instead of getting paid out on what you’ve done, you get a decrease in your pay. With your sales, there is always a way for regions to take off credit for those sales so they won’t go towards your bonus.
