      Pros

      Onsite cafeteria and close parking to Fiddlers Green

      Cons

      The new IT leadership have ruined a once great place to work. When the CIO repeatedly states "Don't retire at CoBank" you know she isn't invested in long term success for CoBank or IT. The CIO and those that followed her religiously change jobs every 3-4 years, which is about enough time for their incompetence to catch up with them. Other directors parrot the latest buzzwords ("No rules, rules" and "Growth Mindset") without providing any real leadership or technical value. Communication is often lacking or misleading, with demotions framed as opportunities. All of these toxic leadership traits have contributed to declining morale and are driving talented employees away. Without significant improvements, the organization will face ongoing instability and compliance challenges for the foreseeable future.
