Pros

If you want to work downtown, you could consider this place.

Cons

Each IT Lines of business runs as its own entity, and only the people who have worked there for 15+ years are provided with any real advancement opportunities. The annual review process is a joke. After you finalize your review with your manager, it is sent to HR, and if they decide they don't want to bump your salary, they actually reduce your review rating so they don't have to increase your salary. Most people at the management level are extremely self-servicing, and the culture literally drains you. Hustle, hustle, hustle..do what is best for the bank, not for you!

Pros

Health Benefits, you can take an hour lunch, everyone starts with 17 days vacation(pro and con) because if you’ve already been in the industry and built up vacation you’re starting from scratch. opportunities to learn on the job, paid volunteering, opportunities for bonuses quarterly.

Cons

Too strict with everything, all they care about are numbers and goals, almost impossible to get company to pay for anything (chair, lunch, cash counter). Very cheap company with salaries and vacation. They do not negotiate vacation AT ALL. Expect you to do two jobs for the pay of one. Also my customers are always getting fraud on their accounts more than I’ve ever seen at any other bank. I was told it is the “fifth third way” to call out people In front of each other for mistakes. For example: during a meeting a manager will call you out in front of everyone for your mistakes and ask you why you did it. This is normal to them… and bad hours.

Pros

The benefits are nice if you can actually use the PTO.

Cons

If you use have a Fifth Third account while working here the investigations department has access to your bank account information. They can then share that information with your manager if they are doing and investigation. There should be no illusion of banking privacy while working with the bank and using any of their products. They will be able to see every transaction and will ask you about them. Even if the investigation finds nothing wrong it feels like you were violated.
