Pros

Pay package is very very good. However, lot of sales stress to go along with that. Regions/AmSouth pays about the highest for all positions from tellers on up. There is a lot of talk about "do the right thing" but that is just talk not really what happens.

Cons

Sales pressure is excessive and cheating to make sales goals is widespread through the bank. The turnover from tellers to business bankers, private bankers, managers etc. is unreal, even higher than the banking industry norm. The sales and marketing is very good, the bank spends a lot of money in that area. Some business decisions are made fast, but others are very very slow. The computer system is ok, better than other banks in terms of ease to use.

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.
