Pros

The benefit package is about the only positive thing I can say about Fifth third Bank. There is a lot of room for advancement in retail, because most employees don't last much longer than a year or two.

Cons

I worked for the company for over ten years, looking back I have no idea why I stayed as long as I did. The senior management does not care about the employees at all, your simply a number that better produce results consistently. If you do have a sales month that is below your goal you will quickly get "counseled" regardless of the reason for the lack of sales. In Retail you are expected to run your Financial Center "short staffed" with no support from other Financial Centers or Senior Management, and during that time you better hit all of your sales goals or you will again be "counseled" for not doing so.
