A good place to work, though not without problems

Pros

I am a contractor and have been at BBVA for 3 /12 years. Overall, it is has been a great experience. My boss is the best I have ever worked with, and I have had good working relationships with many others. The upper management seems really driven to transform the company and turn it into one of the major banks in the US (The parent company is based in Spain and very successful there and throughout Latin America).

Cons

BBVA has some of the classic problems that beset large companies - many inefficiencies, some managers resistant to change, lack of good communication. One of the hardest things at the job is trying to find the person who has the knowledge I need in order to do my job. They also have a mindset of working with contractors rather than hiring full time employees. While there are advantages to being a contractor, I have long ago proved my value and have been frustrated that I can't secure an FTE position.

Pros

The pay is nice and most coworkers are friendly and always willing to lend a helping hand when necessary. There are many opportunities for advancement if you are willing to put in the work.

Cons

Customers can be incredibly rude, especially when they are having financial issues. Also, management at times asks you at the drop of a hat to go sub in for employees that couldn't make it to work at other branches. When you are going to school while working, this can be very troublesome
