Pros

Good managers and co-workers exist but are rare and powerless to prevent degradation of staff and company. Lots of learning opportunities as you serve in roles you are not paid or acknowledged for, but perform so that SOMEONE does the necessary tasks. Made me much more aware of how to spot red flags in a workspace and in domestic violence situations, as they share a 90%+ concurrence with this company

Cons

Substandard pay. Highly toxic corporate culture, deceptive pay practices, rampant discrimination, labor law violations, harassment of virtually every kind imaginable. High turnover leads to rushed hiring decisions leading to high turnover. Employee retention policy has 3 facets: 1: Deliberately misleading terminology & policies. 2: Hide the information needed to understand areas of employee concern (pay, leave, how to report wrongdoing, advancement, etc.) with broken URLs, pages that say "Management only", or fine print in unrelated articles 3: When an employee asks about these topics, refer them to the intranet where the information is hidden, insinuate employee wrongdoing, and "be creative" (lie), even if provided contradictory information.

Pros

Compared with similarly sized institutions, PNC offers decent work-life balance. But it all depends on who your manager is. People are generally very helpful and always willing to answer questions. For the most part, I enjoyed my time there.

Cons

Compensation is frequently ranked among the bottom percentile in the industry, and this was no exception for myself. They do not take into account the cost of living of a certain area when you are in their analyst program. For example, someone in Nashville would have to the same compensation as someone with the same position in San Francisco. During my time there, it definitely felt very “laissez faire”. Communication among deal team members was also a bit unpolished, with juniors frequently having to play catch up. The bureaucracy and level of siloing between lines of business is awful. It slows down deal execution and overall efficiency.
