      Pros

      The company subsidiary Dallas Creation Centre has huge potential since its favors open platforms and hence open ideas. Fintech is at its core. It explores all avenues of technology to attract businesses. It has the resources to make it big in US market. Salary is competitive but bonuses are poor.

      Cons

      As the title says 'Startup' it is struggling with 'management of the management'. 1. Right now since Dallas Creation centre is handling international projects there are multiple managers (for different country) managing the same resource. This adds redundancy to an employee reporting the same thing to multiple managers which leads to overhead and frustration. 2. Work culture is bureaucratic. Directors only speak to managers for feedback, managers only speak to Team leads and teams leads .... If the company doesn't recognize each employee as a partner and treats equally then a 'Master-Butler' relationship originates. 3. Attrition rate had increased since last year. This had created a sense of insecurity amongst the employees. Nobody can openly express their views in front of their managers. 4. Employee appreciation is non-existent. All that matters is work-result logistics.

      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.
