Pros

They tend to treat their longer termed employess well by offering fair compensation packages (variable comp) and extra vacation, but don't let your tenure fool you into thinking you have job security.

Cons

Political as any other company. Know who to have a beer with and when and you'll do fine. They definitely look for the can doers but the "slackers" seem to do just as well. Lots of corporate changes have stirred the pot.

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

Decent benefits, reliable, friendly team but that’s branch specific

Cons

FIX YOUR STAFFING ISSUES!!! You all emphasize work life balance but have us working 6 days a week. If you don’t live in OH, your career opportunities are practically nonexistent. Also- close at 5 on Fridays like a normal bank.
