Pros

The people are great, the leadership is high-integrity. The bank looks to not only provide products and services, but to impact their customers lives in a positive and meaningful way.

Cons

Going through some growing pains where the size and needs of the workforce do not come close to matching the size of the workload. There's lots to do and not enough people to do it. But I know that in 2017 they are actively working to change that.

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.
