Pros

-Most employees are truly top-notch people - really care about customers and other employees -Serious customer focus -Long history of the company -At one point, Huntington was a great community leader and could get that back again. -Because so many employees are great people, the jerks really stand out - however, they are allowed to stay for too long. -Pay is excellent.

Cons

-There are too many incompetent leaders - they must have compromising pictures of someone. Many don't have a college degree, which creates insecurity and backbiting. -HR is a joke without a punchline. They are constantly 'reorganizing', which they think passes for actual work. There is no vision or leadership in HR. -There are different standards for different employees. Higher up people can make racist comments and get away with it. (See above about HR being a joke.) -You don't want to be over 50 years old and working here - they will get rid of you. -Leaders are known to simply throw temper tantrums to get their way. Ruling by intimidation is not leadership. -Biggest challenge is complete lack of planning. The CEO demands something and everyone scrambles to do it - work/life balance is out the window. The culture has changed greatly in the last 15 years and not for the better. -They find out who wrote what on the annual employee survey - please don't provide them with 'candid feedback' if it's negative because you'll have a target on your back.

Pros

Health Insurance is really good for diabetics. PTO is generous, but you can't use it when you want. Some branches are great while others make you want to quit immediately. Make sure you are interviewing at one of the good ones if you want to be part of the company. Coworkers 60% awesome! The others are so bad they need to be fired.

Cons

Recent changes keep getting worse and more frequent. Use of PTO was greatly slashed and means fighting with coworkers for time off. Management cares more about sales than the customers and the employees combined. It's getting giving servitude not a place to realistically grow. Most people have to apply for internal promotions 3-5x before getting it. They make you do all the work for those roles unpaid first, though. So if you want to overwork yourself with twice as much work to move ahead - this is a great place for you. Get ready to call the same customers every week for product pushing.
