First Citizens Bank reviews

Unlimited PTO that you can never use. The goals are so ridiculous that it leaves a feeling of impending doom. Mostly everyone is just waiting to be fired for lack of production. The disconnect between mid level management and those in the retail branch network is obvious. Most of the mid level executives have never worked at a FCB branch, don’t know the systems, don’t understand the processes. They simply “manage” for higher production which typically comes out in one of two ways…. Make more calls, or, maybe this job isn’t right for you. They will find a reason to fire you if they don’t like you. The person at the very top in this area is a narcissist. As friendly as a hermit crab. Very unlikable human being.

Average pay but not top of the market. Weak leadership across the company. Very very cheap company in a lot of ways. They don't really innovative or anything. They just buy and absorb troubled banks. So it's a pretty chaotic and disorganized culture also going through some huge merger every 18 months. Also a very old school deep south mind set. The people are very nice and pleasant to work with. But management is very stubborn and set in their ways. Very conservative and beuractaric.
