Pros

The customers were great and there were quite a few regulars that made my day!

Cons

Don't get me wrong the branch would be a great place to work if you didn't have to sell products to people that they don't need or want, if there was decent advancement opportunities within the company, and if your district manager didn't encourage you to lie to the customers to get sales.

Pros

Great working environment: international, multicultural, relaxed Good growth plans if Europe crisis does not destroy them completely. Awesome upside potential. Fantastic location in NYC. Language lessons during working hours. Very conservative, and therefore safer during crisis times. Good benefits.

Cons

Unfortunately strategy (defined by Spanish-minded bankers sitting 4,000 miles away) changes every 8 months... therefore it is impossible to develop a career away from BBVA's motherland. Junior staff usually leaves as soon as possible and only those tied by a visa to BBVA stay around more than 12 months. No training whatsoever, no career development. International network does not really change anything, as the bank is actually a federation of local banks scattered around Latin America and Europe. Compensation is really weak, with salary increases in the 2% range.
