Have you ever heard of someone lateralling from bank A to bank B then back to bank A?

I know a VP who was at a mid tier BB in NYC from SA to As1 then moved to another mid tier BB but in a regional office where he's now made VP. Now he wants to move back to the first bank but at a regional office in a third city.

Just wondering, how is a move like that viewed? Is it generally challenging to move back to your old bank once you've left?
