PNC Bank Career Growth & Development

PNC Bank Employee Perspectives

PNC encourages continuous learning with formal and informal options, so employees can obtain specific degrees or certifications through Guild, explore new tools on a lunch hour or brush up on communications skills using internal or industry-partner learning sites like LinkedIn Learning.

All the promotions I got were performance-based. I didn’t apply for anything. I really liked the people and was able to do exactly what I went to school for — machine learning. Fraud is very postured for career growth.

I started branding myself to do special, high-level initiatives. I also took advantage of the many educational opportunities that PNC offers. There are always courses and resources available to step up your game and learn new things.

On career growth for herself and her team:

"I have the mindset that if I train them and they do well and go somewhere else in the bank, I’ve done a good job. Developing others is just as important as self-development. It’s one of the great things about being a manager."

People starting their careers should think about coming to PNC because the mentorship is there, and so is the trust. They get to work on important things early. People here are willing to help you learn something with real-world impact.
