Pros
Bankers hours are set and great if you have a family or commitments outside of work. Holiday's off. Flexible sick time.
Cons
BBVA only ever added things to my plate and list of responsibilities, and I always delivered. I was never adequately compensated for the role I was placed in. I was a go-to employee for many customers. Little room for upward mobility, BBVA will always hire from outside, even if it means hiring unqualified staff, usually because they are so poorly staffed they can't spare your leaving your current position for training. Employees often were unprofessional, rude and uncaring and would leave soon after onboarding. Pay, BBVA's merit increase did little for me, and didn't even match inflation, even marginally. If you work at the top, you'll be compensate well. They do not compensate their bankers even a living wage. My final paycheck was docked in late August for vacation time used not yet accrued and with 80 hours work, added up to less than $8.00 an hour. My bonus was also withheld. Onboarding experience was awful. You were expected to constantly do training on an understaffed bank. Constant turnover. No top-cover from COVID policies, if other employees weren't approved to work on site, and at home collecting a check for two weeks... at times there were literally two of us running the entire branch, with not so much as a "thank you" from upper management. We were barely able to maintain our own customers, let alone bring in new business for bonus'. There was no reward for getting to know BBVA's clients and you weren't incentivized to stay. After 3 years of employment I could go make more money wrapping burritos that I was at BBVA.
