DC Maryland RP says I’m outta here

Not hBBT, long time Suntrust. Wow

Evelyn Lee, a longtime top executive at Truist Financial Corp., is leaving the regional banking giant to join EagleBank.

Lee, who until this week was the Greater Washington and Maryland market president at the $520 billion-asset Truist, will start at $11.3 billion-asset EagleBank, the banking subsidiary of Bethesda’s EagleBancorp Inc. (NASDAQ: EGBN), on Sept. 19. Her title will be chief lending officer for the commercial and industrial sector, an area where the bank has been looking to grow.

She held the title of Truist Bank's Greater Washington market president since 2019 and added the Maryland region to her responsibilities last year when Greg Farno retired from that role. She was with Truist and predecessor SunTrust Banks Inc. for 24 years, according to her LinkedIn page.

If you think someone like Lee left SunTruist for a promotion at a podunk bank you are as naive as Bill and his gang of 23. She was entrenched in the DC area and well respected in the business community. The stench of Bill and the rest of EL and the lack of direction for the bank in general has driven a number of solid leaders out the door. As someone said earlier Leshner no doubt will bring in a former WF collegue and overpay to get them. No bank of this size has ever had the kind of leadership turnover as this institution in a relatively short period of time. It is time for Bill, Beau and Joe to go. They have self destructed this bank in three years time.

I assure you that Truist has the money to outbid the community bank. Her new role will arguably be less notable on the local scene, at least near term. This has nothing to do with comp or role, it reeks of yet another competent manager finally succumbing to the idiocy of executive leadership.

Uh, less responsibility and less pay nitwit. Eagle Bank is a small community bank. They will be gobbled up soon

She went to a smaller bank in a much larger role so it was a promotion and higher compensation

It is not normal to have the turnover at the RP level SunTruist has. These are coveted positions that pay well, EVP level compensation and the turnover is beyond anything seen before. Makes a huge statement about how the bank is being run.

Don’t worry my pretties, Lesher has a plethora of Wells cronies at her disposal to replace all the SunTruist Teammates that are leaving.
