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.

Pros

BBVA as a whole, it has a very friendly work environment and has a unique culture unlike any other bank in midtown

Cons

That being said, any team or department that lefts unchecked can end up becoming toxic which happened at my team. There was a VP/ED who was mistreating me to a point where it was a violation of the code of conduct and was impacting my overall internship experience and my chances at a full time job because this ed/vp was allowed to mistreat based on personal biases against me. I reported it to our manager during our midterm meeting to which I phrased it as “he was in violation of the code of conduct and has been abusive”. Instead he yelled at me during the meeting because he didn’t want to lose someone who downgraded from a BB that he got for cheap. He said in the end of the meeting he would talk with the Ed/vp but a month later he pulled me into a room with HR and said today was the last day of my internship. Very unprofessional as he clearly sided with the toxic Ed/vp and booted me out because he didn’t want to lose the Ed/vp even if he was in violation of the code of conduct. Horrible experince and everyone in my team failed to uphold to professional decency. As long as everyone in that team is still there would not recommend this team at BBVA unless something structurally changes.
