Pros

Ok pay; if you work the late shift from home. You get 15% of your pay on top your pay if you work a split shift. Recently raised starting pay to $18/hr.

Cons

Scheduling is unreasonable and is only changed on very rare occasions. Expected to sit for 9 hours taking calls back to back with the exceptions of 2 15 minute breaks and a 30 min unpaid lunch. You are expected to be the answer so you can end up on a call for an hour just trying to figure something out. Days are very unpredictable and if you work until the call center closes (10pm est) you can not log out until the last customer is taken care of. WFH creates a stressful environment. You can not just walk away and collect your thoughts if you have a bad customer or day. You have to sit there and fake your way through it. You have to have very tough skin and not take anything personally

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.
