Pros

I met and formed great lasting relationships with co-workers and clients. The experience taught me to search for companies that truly value their employees.

Cons

BBBVA compass just gave notice to Assistant Branch Managers their jobs are eliminated as of June 1st. When you keep cutting the roots of a corporate tree, the lifeline, the tree will die. BBVA Compass could have cut many fluff non revenue earning or customer facing corporate management positions that would not impact business but instead they choose to cut their lifeline. Words can't describe the idiotic decisions this company makes.

Pros

global company, compensation is good. There are opportunities for advancement, although sometimes these opportunities turn out to be dead-end or placeholder positions that get eliminated at the annual 'cull'.

Cons

a lot of mediocre managers and department heads, loyalty is valued above competence, bureaucratic to the extreme, significant favoritism at executive level towards those with Hispanic surnames, adherence to 'global model' while ignoring US realities. The low-interest rate environment is really hurting this company…make sure you get a good severance package before signing onboard!

Pros

Base salary is higher than other banks. You can call yourself a smaller regional bank, not one of the big banks.

Cons

you have to do multiple jobs and get paid for one. technology is from the 80'sand not getting better any time soon.
