Secure place to work, does need some tweaks - but don't they all?

Pros

This company is very stable, being one of the largest Ag banks out there it's not going anywhere. Decent benefits, good work/life balance, and a good amount of vacation time (3 weeks)

Cons

There are so many hoops to jump through in regards to promotions, projects, or getting stuff done that even the managers don't properly know what to do. This process needs streamlining to make life easier for everyone The career path needs to be more defined, I have heard many rumblings that there is no clear career path and that's why some people choose to leave.

Pros

CoBank has great benefits and most of the people that work there are great!

Cons

Senior Management recently executed an "efficiency program." They laid a bunch of people off and moved many others into new roles, but in the end, we're no more efficient because they didn't put very much thought into their decisions. Morale is really low with the layoffs and poor communication from management.
