Q&A With PNC Employees

you have to pay back if you leave

Vacation days you get are improving although there is no carry over from year to year which is a problem if you don’t take it all by years end.

Yes, at least two I know of.

Yes, PNC allows work from home.

Yes. In many positions at PNC, a fuul time employee may request the priviledge of working from home one or two days a week after working there for 90 days.

The CEO is awesome

He seems fair. I don’t have much interaction with him so I’m not really sure.

Fun.

PNC is very Diversified.

There is a good bit of diversity in the Technology & Innovation dept

That annual raises are usually small.

Nothing growing anywhere, difficulties everywhere in all departments.

Technology driven positions are growing the fastest. However, PNC has a huge age discrimmination problem.

Digital is absolutely growing the fastest.

The same day or two days.

Yes both

Definite drug testing, I don't know about the background check, I passed it if they do.

Helping those customers I could to understand what was going on with their accounts, fixing what I could and trying to get them to the correct department if I couldn't!

The teams I work with, they are very good.

Fast paced highly technical.

Very! But I loved the challenge part of it!!!

Extremely challenged.

PNC tecnology trams life balance is exceptional.

Just wait, they'll have openings all the time so you'll get on if you wait.

Gain experience in all the popular technologies driving busineses today.

I was a mentor, a Quality assistant, my numbers were superb, so I was comfortable in doing my job, but with PNC, it doesn't matter if you never miss a day of work, come in half dead and sick, never get reprimanded for doing anything wrong or if your numbers are amazing ... they'll claim you committed fraud because you did the job they asked you to do and fire you with no warning! So, your job is not secure, but you may feel secure after time in doing your job while you still have it!

LOW, abysmal, but the TL's are really good at lying to you and trying to tell you that everything's peachy!

It’s gotten much better the last couple years. They’ve started trying to be more financially competitive with attracting new talent but they still have a long way to go with taking care of their long term loyal employees.

What perks or benefits?! Oh, I did mention the discount on gym membership, they have break rooms....

PNC has excellent 401k benefits and has a pension that the employees don’t have to pay into.

You're a peon in a cubicle, make sure you remember where you sit or decorate your cubicle to be able to find it, unless they move you again, and then you'll have to find where they put you this time!

PNC if very tecnology driven. They adapted Agile floors, which are open work spaces.

I was never asked questions, not sure what they ask now.

Questions are based on job profile and hiring to job competencies.

Make it more an actual team atmosphere. When one dept makes a mistake, another person shouldn't get the shaft for doing their job.

Agile transformation is helping to shift the culture but more needs to be done. Upper management in the traditional business lines need to get out of the waterfall mindset. Being rigid on dates and project scope creates a lot of conflicts. Line of Business product managers need to have a better vision of where they are going so that shifting priorities don't cause lost work and inefficiencies. We often lack good in house resources for design and development and this causes us to rely a lot on contract employees. Some of these folks are awesome and some are sub-par. We do have some highly engaged folks in Digital but we've have grown fast. Not sure we have the right structure to support our size.

Business attire but quite frankly the bank isn't held to very high standards. Shockingly, I've seen some pretty raggedy looking staff at different branches. I guess it depends on the area.
