Pros

Unlike the big banks and some regional banks, there is more autonomy and investment options to provide clients. The management was knowledgeable and supportive of the financial advisor.

Cons

As with all banks, there is an expectation that an advisor will recommend their clients to add-on other bank products and services. The push can turn off clients but 5/3 is not as guilty of this as other banks that measure this activity daily.

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.
