Pros

Definitely the great company culture, its noticeable how much goes into employee engagement, there is a family feel in this company.

Cons

In retail, processes seem disorderly at times, the customer experience can vary so much for place to place. At times too much focus is placed where it shouldn't be.

Pros

Compensation is decent with many branches to transfer if closer to home.

Cons

Fifth Third creates a hostile environment in the branches. Points are harder to get, year after year. It becomes a hostile competition among coworkers, and a fight for points. Tellers are salespeople. They are expected to sell, and most of the time seal the deal. They do exactly what the personal bankers do, minus the pay and actually inputting it into the system. Branch Managers are very competitive, and will do whatever it takes to be number one (even if it means throw you under a bus) Too much paperwork and meetings about how you're going to do something. Its all about numbers! If you want a promotion, you better be PERFECT and EXCEEDING in sales goals, and customer service scores. The hiring process takes entirely too long. The only thing that is good about working for Fifth Third, is the pay. So if you can handle all the bad (sell your soul) for the pay, you will love it. Otherwise, it will make you hate banking altogether.

Pros

Benefits are great and their motto seems great on paper and in theory! Have not worked there that long and I am new to the industry, so I do not really know what is really fair for salary.

Cons

There is too much arguing at this particular branch! There are employees that argue about who is boss and has attitude problems not addressed.
