Pros

Excellent Benefits and Fair Pay

Cons

Management - both branch level and upper. It's all about sales and not necessarily what is best for the customers but what is best for the branch production numbers. Accounts are opened that are not needed and customers are deceived with sales. Upper management is the only one who benefits from the sales of his customer service reps and in return bogus awards programs are never fully followed through with promises to employees. Fifth Third is not about how well you excel at your job, success only comes to those who are allowed to be intimidated by upper management.

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.
