I do not know where to start!! Sales pressure was crazy! The tellers had to do a lot of referrals with the SAME 5 people that come into the bak every day! At some locations, you might have a customer once every 15-30 minutes if that! There is rarely a line at the teller line. So what does that mean? There might only be a very small handfull of customers you will help and you are required to make referrals and open credit cards. That sounds fine and dandy however you know everyone by name and it gets old asking Tom, Dick, and Henry Every time you see them to sign up for some product or service.BBVA is still relatively new on the West coast and there is not enough people . Also, for those that are FSA's (Financial Sales Associate) be prepared to have to open several checking accounts, sell HELOCs, mortgages, business accounts, money markets, and CD's so basically EVERYTHING will be on your shoulders. Again, there is not enough traffic and management is can be crazy when it comes to not hitting numbers.Just enter with caution. Also, negotiate salary before accepting the job because you will only see a raise of 0.5%-2% raise if that. It's not per person, it is based on merrit but you will share that marrit. So, if there are 3 people who qualify for a raise, you will be sharing a 2% raise that is split between the 3 people.
