Pros – Great team, reasonable sales goals, understanding management! Like any job, you get out what you put in, however, this company makes it clear that it values its employees and offers a lot of support/ coaching/ mentoring

Cons – I was part-time so there were no huge downsides but I guess it depends on the branch that you work at and the pace of work that you prefer.

Pros – Learned some valuable knowledge about the banking and financial industries.

Cons – Horrible local management. Vast discrepancy in pay for same positions/experience/education.

Advice to Senior Management – Promote people based on aptitude and performance, not randomly selected "chosen ones". I saw many qualified employees passed over for positions in favor of less competent choices, who were friends of management.

Current Employee – been working at Regions Financial full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – I work with a great team and enjoy going to work. Management is very supportive, from mid-level to executive. I feel very comfortable escalating any issues to them, and am confident that they will respond positively to me.

Cons – Pay is not very good and there is little direction for career advancement, although the opportunities are there.

Advice to Senior Management – Have a better approach for people wanting to move up. It would be nice to have certain goals set, etc. i.e. "To get here, this is what you need to do..."

Current Employee – been working at Regions Financial full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – Training classes: within and outside the bank. Free checking account setup with no min. deposit amount.

Cons – There is no job recognition for the associates at the bottom of the food chain. Seems that recognition comes at the AVP level or higher.

Advice to Senior Management – Promote associates that are competent to do the job at the next level, not by seniority. For senior/executive management I would suggest doing an audit on associate productivity in the operations department in the Birmingham area.There is no job accountability held within a certain system that is used by all bank locations and back office workers. Without having this accountability workers are allowed to hide in secrecy of not doing their fair share of departmental work, while it is pasted off to other associates on the team.
