Pros

Work/Life Balance People are generally friendly Respected Brand in TN

Cons

Many silos Not very efficient Senior management does not engage enough to know about the details of the business Lots of unqualified people that need to retire or be fired Bonus only given to higher management Diversity is a joke, although Memphis has high minority population, minorities are not in 'real' senior management positions and are paid lower Not a great place to develop your career

Pros

Great culture Flexibility Team Collaboration Growth Opportunities ERG’s Benefits

Cons

I had a very positive experience overall. If I had to identify an area for improvement, I’d say that as the company continues to grow, there are opportunities to further streamline processes and enhance cross-team communication. That said, it’s a natural part of growth, and I appreciated being part of that evolution.

Pros

The only pro of working at this company is the biweekly paycheck.

Cons

I worked in HR at First Horizon for two years, and my experience showed me a company that consistently prioritized its own interests over those of its employees. The intense micromanagement stems from unrealistic expectations set by senior leadership, creating a high-pressure environment with little regard for work-life balance. The company has also required employees to return to the office full-time, offering virtually no flexibility for remote or hybrid work. That decision speaks volumes about how much value is placed on employee well-being. To make matters worse, I saw instances where previously approved vacation requests—even trips that had already been booked and paid for—were later revoked. Before accepting an offer here, I would strongly encourage you to consider whether this is the kind of culture you want to be part of.
