Pros

The attitude and care towards employees is wonderful. This is the most positive and encouraging place I have ever worked. The option to volunteer during work hours is unheard of till I came to Umpqua. In few words, I love my job and my coworkers.

Cons

Change in staff since I have worked here has been tough.

Pros

Columbia Banking System has been a great place to work for thus far. The environment is enjoyable and the company itself is virtuous.

Cons

There is quite a bit of downtime in-between customers, but this is also a pro because it means there is ample opportunity to get more customers through the door and banking with us.

Pros

Great People, generous Vacation and Sick time, and decent facilities.

Cons

Poor communication from leadership. Typical "Good ol' Boys Club" type politics, and too many convoluted policies and procedures to keep up. Hard workers are awarded with more work, while others are allowed to skate by under the radar.
