Bank of the West Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"Worst bank to work for, discrimination."

"Great company that was recently sold to BMO."

"Bank of the West has some great aspects: smart people, and a commitment to ethics, diversity, and the customer. I have been proud to tell people that I work for BOTW, especially since the company was the first major US bank to implement a green\restrictive fossil fuels policy. But I have seen my workload double in the last two years even as I did not get even a cost-of-living raise for the first time in my adult life. And IT still seems woefully understaffed, year after year."

"I worked for Bank Of The West over 15 years. As a large bank, it’s focus was customer services and Employee recognition quarterly. This was a plus and reason there was no large employee turnover!!"

"The company work ethic is very supportive and encouraging. Employee input is gathered by daily stand-ups and scrum feedback/overview."

"Very diverse company that provides equality to all individuals."

"With just over 10k employees and 545 retail branches, Bank of the West is a medium size bank that focuses on personalized customer service. It is a great place to work and is very socially conscious."

"The previous position was for four years with a great bank who had closure and elimination of an entire department."

"Incentive plans are ridiculous and goals are completely unobtainable. Regional and divisional management don't care about their employees, and their idea of gratitude is company branded face masks."

"I am beyond grateful to Bank of the West where I didn’t feel valued as an employee or a person. From the moment I walked into Bank of the West I felt the difference in environment. People are actually happy here, and not only happy, but they are thriving at their career. So far it has been rewarding and has really opened doors for me to be able to work with like minded, strong and hard working individuals, whom appreciate the diverse environment, who value female entrepreneurs and who most importantly, respect each other."

"Good place to work. Not sure it will be a place I will want to work in the long run."

"BOTW is a progressive company and an equal opportunity employer. They are internationally known bank and owned by their parent company BNP Paribas. They are a full-service bank and require all employees to take continual training and ensuring all know government guidelines they must follow."

"Bank of the West is a great company to work for. It offers excellent training, however moving up is a bit challenging as you have to wait for Senior positions to open up."

"I have worked with Bank of the West for 8 years. They have excellent benefits, significant room for growth and great management."
