Pros

Love the structure, everyone from the top down are very helpful and friendly. They give you the tools to succeed, products are great so makes for easy pitching sales. Does come with a quarterly compensation depending on sales, customer service, etc.

Cons

Doing teller work can be tedious. Can make it difficult to concentrate on sales goals and follow ups.

Pros

I recommend BBVA compass only as a contractor. It has a great working relationship with contractors, but NOT for full time employees.

Cons

"USA BBVA Compass" (not BBVA parent company) is not the "best place to work" for full time employees, for the following reasons: -Full time employees are being stretched too thin, micromanaged, exploited, and overworked for a salary that is less than their "green" competitor (Regions) and contractors counterparts pay. -Can never establish a trust working relationship with leadership because most managers are looking out for their own interests and the interests of their circle of buddies such: close family friends, uncles, nephews, husbands, wife, who they always lookout while in the job. How can you compete with that? -Working with family members conflict of interest and playing favorites is so high . -Contractors have more perks than full-time employees. Contractors have work flex-times, not pushed to work more than 40 hours, working from home, take extended vacations by mixing working from home and vacation. When full time employees ask managers for similar perks they are told to to abide by the HR policies. -Some managers found so many loopholes hiring contractors. You can even work with your spouse in the same group, and full time employees can't do that. -When full time employees request some or part of the perks that contractors enjoy then HR rules state is left up to the "manager's discretion" decide. If you are not part of your manager's buddy circle than you WILL definitely have a hard time requesting anything that is left at your your manager's discretion. Leadership bureaucracy is so high.
