First National Bank Employer Reviews

First National was a good job to have while in college.

Working in a bank for four years, teaches a person responsibility, reliability, and confidentiality. Money is a very private matter and employees have to handle large sums of money while maintaining privacy of where it comes from and who it belongs too.

By working there, a person can prove their – more...  honesty, reliability and that they can handle private matters. – less

Typical day at work is when I don't balance.
What I've learned is how to deal with different people(people skills)
Management is great.
Co-workers they have different behaviour and they're nice people to work with.
Hardest part of the job is when i have to go extra mile during festive holidays.
The most enjoyable part is serving customers

A typical day would be assisting clients in opening and closing accounts,helping at the ATM,ordering of foreign exchange-cards or cash.Opening of business accounts.I have learnt a vast amount of knowledge and gained experience as FNB was my first employer.The values they incorporate are as important to me,respect being the most important.My colleagues – more...  were always helpful,be it in a personal or professional capacity.Management always had an open door policy by which one could always approach them without fear of being victimised.The most difficult part of my job I would definitely say is the dealing with mandates of the business accounts.The most enjoyable part of the job is dealing with customers,i love interacting with people and also knowing you have gone the extra mile in aiding them. – less

Overall great training ground. Learned alot about the banking industry including credit reporting and money exchange.

First National Bank treated their employees like family. They offered maximum time off when necessary for family. Family came first. They treated clients as family. Offered coffee and home made cookies to clients.
Employee appreciation was ongoing with gifts and perks. One of the best companies I worked for.
They were purchased by Fifth Third whose – more...  culture was not the same. – less

Excellent place to work.
Management works well with employees.
Lots to learn about retail business.
Enjoy customer service.

I was a parttime teller.
I also got along great with my co workers

Overall my job is very easy going and not hard at all. I like interacting with customers. Management is very lenient. Most of my co-workers are hard working. There really are no hard parts about being a teller at First National Bank. What i enjoy most about my job are the customers.

Developing ideas and products to increase customer base.
Many branches across the state, each in its own unique market.

A typical day at work would be answering the phones and making copies. I have learned the basic needs of being a receptionist, secretary, etc. Management is awesome. My co-workers are all great. I wouldn't say there was a hard part of the job. It was all understanding. The most enjoyable part of the job would be greeting and meeting all the customers – more...  with their needs. – less

The customers and management in this company were amazing! Always helpful and cheer-full!!

Small bank that needed to upgrade services.It was not very competitive.and needed to reorganize.

the managers do not know how to assist customers nor do they encourage customer service. They are unhelpful to their employees and do not care about customers.

This was a fun place to work as it challenged me everyday to meet deadlines. Very nice co-workers who made you feel comfortabe and we truly worked as a team.

Very family friendly employer. Loved working there with the great people that were employed there.

First National Bank was a great company to work for because they took care of their employees regardless of what position you held. I enjoyed working there and would have continued if the company wasn't sold to the M&T corporation.

My position in the Production Center was a department that was created to help out personal bank and operations. Also assisted the Marketing Department with creating banking brochures and other projects.

This was an excellent company to work with; however, family life was a priority.
