Pros

Great money and quick service if you know what you are doing. Not micro-managing

Cons

It is a such a large bank and it is not easy to find an answer you are looking for. Every department passes you off to another and no one wants to take responsibility for the overall experience leaving you to waste your time trying to track down answers.

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.
