Pros
Plenty of different opportunities within the company for advancement and lateral mobility. Many different lines of business to choose from; Banking, Investments, Mortgage, Trust, Commercial Lending, etc.
Cons
The downsides listed are not necessarily exclusive to Regions. I imagine the experience is very similar with other banks. Daily pressure to perform and sell a large array of financial products. A lot of regulations, rules, and changes to stay current with. Need to have a broad knowledge base along with excellent customer service skills. Constant distractions (ie: account issues, complaints, overdrafts, account fraud... Can be quite tedious at times and still involves way too much paperwork for the 21st century.
