Pros

Beautiful headquarters with a nice view of the city of Pittsburgh

Cons

Boring. its current motto. The P in PNC should mean Pretend, as it pretends that it is a big bank, but it still stuck in it's old regional bank culture, but now it doesn't cater well to any type of customer, be individual, small, medium or large business. Insular. Management thinks it knows it all. Top down all the time. Eternal rush and stop without going anywhere. Surprised it is not doing worse yet, but it will catch up with its mistakes.

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.
