BB&T reviews

Not good management training, conference calls on Mondays and Fridays where you get yelled out for not making your numbers. Events, working more than 1 saturday a month, no comp time for saturday. short staffed, when they loose someone, they don't replace them. Management makes you think that you have it good but you really don't. Treat their manager's like crap! The whole culture has changed with John Allison retiring. Employees are miserable, management gets blamed for everything. You are always pulled in 100 different directions. Sales, sales, sales even if the client doesn't need it!

BB&T is turning into the "bigger, badder bank." Constant restructuring of employees, budget cuts, manic hiring sprees and then freezes, and pressure for high sales had made this place a dreadful place to work. I use to love my job. Now it's turning into a daily threat of job security, while the middle of the pack works to support management, and the workload is not returned. They spend money on a worthless "video game" and then cut the budget so tight we can't even buy candy in the branch for the clients. There is no room to advance except for branch management. They hire IRM partners from external sources instead of training their own and then expect those same partners to have the values that get drilled into the existing staff day after day. So the people that stay and want to move up in the company don't have anywhere to go. It's all about what is new and shiny, and at the end of the day, it is a mens' club, or the good old boy network. Period.
