Pros

Licensed Banker Program. Looked good on the resume.

Cons

A multiple "focus" is no Focus at all. Changing Retail banking enviroment ( traffic) has driven the licensed personal banker out of the office to chase business, while any realtionship building of current clients is left to the CSR, FSR, PB or the (FCM's who never get out of the office to seek business ) only to attend another meeting. Yet the unreasonable widget goals remained, and KPI point attainment loomed. The values of those points had been severely reduced over the last year or so as well. An LPBi widget goal should be reduced to a more reasonable level, and emphasize the Investment goal.

Pros

Great team environment, perfect entry level career for anyone in college pursuing a role in finance.

Cons

Fifth Third Bank has been undergoing significant changes on its staffing as some regions currently have seen a lot of upward momentum in promotions and hiring for internal roles. Expect there to be a brief period of short staffing, depending on the branch you are hired for.

Pros

The training is very thorough and extensive. They take security seriously. You are supported when you’re a new hire. There are ways to be involved and feel included in the company. Information is readily available to help you.

Cons

It is a job that can lead to a lot of stress. It can be very fast paced. There are a lot of policies, procedures and information to remember. Should have proficient computer skills to be successful with this position..
