Pros

Regions Bank had a fair compensation package that paid you for your performance. They use this compensation as the only stimulus and reward for a job well done. The tools and services are all available to be successful in commercial banking at this institution. Delivering on the products is another story.

Cons

Communication and advancement are impossible at Regions Bank. In my personal experience, management does not recognize the performers in the company. Goals and responsibility are loaded on the ones with the ability to get the job done and the dead weight is not penalized for their lack of ability or initiative. The corporate message doesn't make it down to the producer level. It is a serious detriment to the ability of the line person to serve the customer without having a clear picture of where the bank is going. I sold products to clients that were what they needed only to have the product discontinued or majorly overhauled within weeks of the sale. This made a good relationship and sale a negative because the customer viewed it as a "bait and switch".

Pros

Some groups had a lot of internal politics, but mine was absolutely wonderful. I worked with kind, intelligent, patient people who always had my back and encouraged me to succeed. I loved my job and would've stayed for the long haul if not for the merger. Employee 401K match and annual profit sharing, unlimited free cokes and juice, and plenty of opportunities to travel across the Southeast with a great group of co-workers!

Cons

Audit was very clique-focused. If you weren't with the "in" crowd, you were basically screwed. And if someone with influence didn't like you or were intimidated by you - again, screwed.

Pros

Hours, decent vacation, training material is adequate.

Cons

Regions core values are a joke, they don't do what is right by the customer, they don't put people first, and they DON'T focus on the customer. Its all about numbers. In the first quarter of 2010, 121 branches are being closed corp-wide. Sales pressure is relentless and is seriously turning away quality customers. Product-pushing ruined every bank that ever made it the primary focus. They hire managers with no banking experience that are clueless to proper policy and procedures.
