Pros

Good benefits; excellent work life balance and flexible schedules. Work from home is the norm for mortgage lending. 401k Match and a Pension. Health benefits are pretty good. You do have to play their little games to get extra HSA $$.

Cons

You are lucky to get a 2% raise. If you meet all expectations you get a 2% raise. Exceed Expectations you will get 2.5% raise and they will make it like it is the biggest raise ever. I have tried to move up and like others, jobs are posted, people apply and they pull down the requisition for no reason. People in my department have applied for 30 -40 posted positions but no one has been moved or even given an interview. But they expect us to live off 2% raises and no bonuses. I have other lenders throwing money at me to leave and I am so close, if I can only give up the 4 weeks vacation to start over.

Pros

Easy enough to request time off. ( In the call center not branches) Remote, 9 occasional absence days and you start with 3 weeks vacation. I had some really great coworkers

Cons

The Burnout! Back to back to back to back calls. Ridiculously unrealistic expectations of us. They come up with a new buzzword and go all in. Recently their buzzword is hospitality. However it's anything but hospitable. PNC causes mistakes for customers and then we get yelled at. With absolutely no way to fix it promptly. They take double payments all the time and customers call in ripping mad and we have to say oh sorry our bad will send you a check in 2 weeks but we got to make sure the money clears first. It's truly insane. Another buzzword is empathy, and again they don't have much empathy for us. In a shift you can easily take 70 calls. The matrix every year gets more impossible to meet. And in every year they change how they're going to write you up. They went from six instances down to one. Just make one mistake and you're written up. I hope they can RESOLVE this issue for themselves.
