Pros

The entire department has the same morale level: rock bottom.

Cons

Ten years with the bank, eight of which in the same role and going nowhere. College was a complete waste, as PNC cares not what your potential is, just what is listed on their endless reports. PNC values reports and micromanagement more than anything else. Pay increases range from 0% to a max of 1%. So a .25% pay increase is essentially a free soda every two weeks. At that rate, you will achieve a 10% pay increase in over 40 years. The people that get bonuses (executives) state that the rest of the employees will not, so from time to time, you'll get a PNC branded stress ball, or PNC branded pen, etc. Avoid at all costs. They have no interest in your happiness, despite them telling you that they do. Proof of that is when you tell them you're unhappy, nothing happens, multiplied by a whole department.

Pros

Compared with similarly sized institutions, PNC offers decent work-life balance. But it all depends on who your manager is. People are generally very helpful and always willing to answer questions. For the most part, I enjoyed my time there.

Cons

Compensation is frequently ranked among the bottom percentile in the industry, and this was no exception for myself. They do not take into account the cost of living of a certain area when you are in their analyst program. For example, someone in Nashville would have to the same compensation as someone with the same position in San Francisco. During my time there, it definitely felt very “laissez faire”. Communication among deal team members was also a bit unpolished, with juniors frequently having to play catch up. The bureaucracy and level of siloing between lines of business is awful. It slows down deal execution and overall efficiency.
