Great People, But No Support or Accountability

Pros

Great people, decent products, good pay.

Cons

No corporate support - no marketing, no ads, no promotions, but you are expected to sell a bank nobody in this state has ever heard of. The corporation deliberately tries to make sure employees are not paid bonuses. If the employee is nearing the end of the quarter and looking like s/he will hit their numbers and bonus out, they manipulate metrics to make sure you are just below the payout threshold. They will then make it sound like you are to blame for not working hard enough.

Pros

Mostly good work hours. Good life insurance policy.

Cons

Upper management is poorly educated in making overall financial decisions for the company. In Colorado there is a major staffing issue and each branch may have a staff of only 2 people. I have worked in the financial industry for 10+ years and the overall strategy and support at BBVA Compass is the worst I have ever encountered. Sales goals are fairly impossible because they change them constantly, hard to get any bonuses if your annual numbers have changed 3 + times. Also you are not given the tools or resources to meet them....you are just expected to figure it out. The training is horrible and their is no one qualified to train anyone because their turnover is so high. They have major problems from the top down and have no real clear path of fixing them. I would not recommend to any sane person.
