Pros

Great benefits! I get $1,000 excused off my Regions Home Mortgage each year just for continuing to work there. Regions also matches 100% on the first 6% contributed to your 401k. With so many locations, you can pretty easily transfer to another branch even in a different state with your job staying the same. I have had several friends want to move in their careers to be closer to family, etc and it was very easy for them to do so. I have also not seen many get fired due to poor performance or sales skills, one of the advantages of not getting paid much is that your too cheap to let go!

Cons

Very hard to get noticed individually at such a large company. I have been working for Regions Bank for 4 years, have a Finance Degree and a MBA from a State School, and have been one of the top 3 producers out of 25 for the past 3 years and have never received a single promotion still working in a entry level position.

Pros

The Culture, the people, the atmosphere are OUTSTANDING- there really is a feeling of camaraderie and "can do" attitude in every person I've met here.

Cons

None so far, if anything, perhaps a tendency to plan a bit too ambitiously- but it definitely seems to steer the ship in the right direction.

Pros

The overall bank culture - they truly show that they value their employees, and fully vested in ensuring that is communicated and shown. I was completely impressed with my onboarding experience, and each day since my start date reaffirms that I made the right decision in accepting their offer. I could immediately tell that they invested in providing adequate tools to make our job functions efficient. There is also a large array of Learning & Development modules that are available to enhance your career. They are always sending out surveys to obtain feedback from the employees about their experience whenever they may have to engage with another area. The atmosphere has also been very welcoming and everyone seems so genuinely happy. They have provided me with a work life balance and good benefits. Regions definitely has identified the ingredients that I believe factor into why one would describe them as a great place to work. If the employees feel appreciated and are happy, it resonates. Its that kind of attitude that will be naturally also extended to our customers because its a embedded culture. I enjoy getting up and going to work everyday because I feel as if I am now working for a company that values the people they employ - and also care about how that also positively impacts their customers.

Cons

I can see that there are some gaps whereas one area may not fully understand what is going on in another - and because of that there may be some unnecessary overlap.
