Pros

BBVA Compass train you to learn,develop,commit yourself and succed as banker to go above and beyond their own organizational concept,business structure and management policies and mentality.They train you very well to overcome great obstacles that they impose to you not providing you with the tools to perform,and they create in you a mentality to achieve,and succed no matter what.

Cons

After 7 years working in this banking company,achieve my goals,and obtain a annual performance recognition Award (Pinnacle Club) I was really surprised receive an humiliating treatment during the last 2 years before I submit my resignation ,being insulted and called with profanity words several times,be overly micromanaged and be continously harassed,no appreciation at all, They can call or text you during your vacations,off work,texting continuosly you while they know you are driving,and overdemand response,etc Unfortunately for them is more important to give "bonuses" and other "perks""money"than provide and respect your human dignity and values.

Pros

The very best products in the industry, hands down! The pay is competitive with other banks, benefits are very good, and they have a matching program for their 401k. Employees start out with 2-3 weeks vacation, depending on your position. They like to promote from within and invest quite a bit of training into their employees, if you are willing to learn and expand yourself.

Cons

This is a very large company, based in Spain, which leads to semi-frequent changes to how goals are structured, senior leadership roles. and some general inflexibility. Their mortgage products are great but that department is terrible and has very high turnover.

Pros

Large bank so job security is acceptable, fairly established formal procedures, may push to transfer within departments if necessary

Cons

Terrible corporate culture based on bullying, entrenched management means upward mobility is limited, serious glass ceiling, extremely high sales pressure which leads to questiionable behavior
