      I have been working at Regions Financial full-time

      Pros

      Great benefits: 401K, health, vision and dental insurance, sick time, and vacation time.
      Plenty of ways to access proper procedure, and ways to get answers for problems.
      Really strives to meet the needs of the customer.

      Cons

      Sometimes management does not want to follow procedure, and it can get you caught in the middle. You have to be willing to put your foot down for following proper procedure.
      Pay will not increase unless there is a dramatic change in job level.

      Advice to Management

      Emphasis the importance of following procedure through action and not just words.

      I worked at Regions Financial full-time (More than a year)

      Pros

      Good benefits would be the only thing I can honestly say is exceptional. Could be better in corporate, but not out in the fray.

      Cons

      They call you the most important part of the company but could care less about you. Good benefits and that's it. Often times you are smarter than the management you deal with if in a branch.

      You must get to corporate/out of consumer/branch side to stand a chance

      Advice to Management

      Don't treat your employees like slaves. Care for them like you claim you do and recognize talent, maybe it won't leave you for better pay so quickly.

      I worked at Regions Financial full-time (More than 10 years)

      Pros

      Great benefits, strong support structure, very impactful training programs, great franchise with state of the art technology and strong footprint in the Southeast. Very good product suite and line of business partners to support customer needs.

      Cons

      Very unrealistic goals for Managers and Platform and Teller positions. Staff reductions have gone too far, especially with Tellers. Too many demands that keep retail staff from adequately meeting customer needs. Customer service can be an issue in relation to sales. Senior Management underestimates the level of service issues Branches deal with, especially in rural markets.

      Advice to Management

      Go to the Branches and spend time on the front line. Form focus groups related to issues in the Branches.

      Pros

      Great benefits and vacation time. Pay is average.

      Cons

      Little to no support from direct supervisor. Not all branches are like this! Don't let this keep you from applying!

      Advice to Management

      Stop micromanaging and changing directions every time the wind blows. Support the team under you that makes you successful.

      Pros

      This company truly cares about work life balance and truly want what's best for their customers (changing some now though). Lots of small recognitions given each quarter. Lots of opportunity to grow in many directions

      Cons

      Moving toward the micro management pushy sales way of banking. Most growth opportunity is only in Birmingham, Al. Salary and bonuses are much lower than many competitors

      I worked at Regions Financial full-time (More than a year)

      Pros

      clean facility when I was working downtown. a few good people here and there.

      Cons

      I was grossly under paid compared to my male co workers. Regions is like an old gentlemens club culture and are way behind on technology and treating people fairly. A lady in HR who never had any HR training or experience was very rude and in a position she was not qualified for. I was also expected to work 60 hours a week sometimes more on projects that could have spanned longer but they didn't care bc "I didn't have a family"...

      Advice to Management

      Pay your women right. It was by accident but some idiot in HR sent an excel of information out to our whole group and didn't delete the tab with everyones salaries. (They didn't even get fired for that) Women were by far paid less even when they were better workers than their counter piers who were men.
