Pros

Amazing team, culture and product mix. I'm most grateful to work here.

Cons

Benefits - please consider offering multiple benefit options which can lower the annual out of pocket max. I almost didn't join BBVA because of the high out of pocket max. Also, please consider providing large screens for MBO's. The strain on our eyes, and necks are excessive trying to see the screen. Also, the base salary should not be inclusive of outside commissions, per the market. Both Wells Fargo and Chase offer a $30,000 salary with commission above that. With our first dollars coming out of the base salary makes us one of the lowest paid MBO's who work in a bank.

Pros

Strong purpose and well-articulated desired values and behaviors. Strong commitment to cultivating a first-class workforce. Prevalent feedback culture that actively seeks feedback from employees and works hard to implement solutions to make the bank better for team members and its customers. Strong sense of community and volunteerism. A well-defined strategy and path forward. Willing to fail fast and change course when needed. Commitment to putting the client first.

Cons

Company is undergoing strategic and cultural transformation simultaneously, so change is omnipresent and appears to be the new norm. Some might argue this is a "Pro." Safe to say this creates challenges, even if it is what's best for the long-term outlook of the company.
