Pros

The only reasons to work at Regions is for the meger benefits. The pay is not bad, but not else should cause you to work for this bank.

Cons

The biggest downside is that this is a "good-ole boy bank". The Board and the CEO are always increasing each other's paychecks and stock options, while share holder value, and employee well-being is never considered. I got the impression they were just trying to keep the company afloat long enough to sell out to another bank, or get another MOE check.

Pros

HR is easily accessible. Some managers may be on your behind about work even though there are easier methods. Some managers with criticize you in front of other employees.

Cons

We have to use five of our vacation days consecutively so they can audit us. We aren’t assigned Saturday shifts close to our home, so some people have to drive farther for 3 hours of work (no mileage). Managers are hit or miss. PE can be affected by location, so try to get a good location.

Pros

There are Bonuses and employee appreciation days. Good rotation on working weekends.

Cons

Your bonus is paid out based on others performance. If you’re having a great quarter, but someone else is doing slightly better, instead of getting paid out on what you’ve done, you get a decrease in your pay. With your sales, there is always a way for regions to take off credit for those sales so they won’t go towards your bonus.
