Pros

The culture is extremely strong and practiced on a daily basis. This is not a company that just says the have a culture- they live it. If you are not a team player, don't want to come to work to have fun, and don't want to love the people you work with, this is not the place for you. You cannot hide at your desk and expect to get through the day.

Cons

Sometimes training can be lacking in certain areas of the bank.

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.
