Pros

HW is the fourth bank I have worked for. I have worked at both very large and small financial institutions. HW is great because in many ways we operate with the sophistication of a bigger bank in a small bank setting. We get things done and when necessary can react fairly quickly to changing situations. There is a true team oriented feel amongst associates.

Cons

Not many. At times we operate like a small bank as some things can take longer or become drawn out beyond a reasonable time frame. Sometimes we move fast and some times not so much.

Pros

I started at Hancock Whitney 15 years ago as a teller and have progressed to a Commercial Banker. Throughout my career, the bank has supported me through graduate school, GSBLSU, leadership programs, Louisiana Bankers Association courses, and other professional development opportunities. Hancock Whitney encourages associates to be involved in their communities through volunteer efforts, professional organizations, and local events. Internally, Associate Resource Groups provide opportunities to connect with associates across the company. My experience has been supportive teams, opportunities for growth, and a culture that encourages both professional development and community involvement. Nearly 15 years later, I'm still here, which probably says more than anything else I could write in this review.

Cons

Like many large organizations, decisions and changes can sometimes take time to work through multiple levels of the company.
