Pros

Huntington provides a lot of opportunities to increase your knowledge base while applying what you learn. Management trusted me to get done what was required with little overbearing pressure.

Cons

Unpaid on-call that reliably called in the middle of the night and on weekends. Raises and promotions locked behind 2 year time limit. I started off at an entry level pay since I had little experience, but I learned fast and took on many more responsibilities, so I felt I deserved a raise. However, they told me I needed to wait until the 2 year time limit, which felt longer than 2 years because I started on contract for 6 months. When the 2 year time frame came close I was told raises are capped around 7% and since I had been brought in at a lower rate, that raise simply wasn't enough. I was able to find a job at another company for a 28.5% increase

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.
