Pros

Good line manager. Tools I needed to complete my job. Ethically sound company for the most part. Good reputation with the end-user ... ie, the depositors.

Cons

C-suite was in chaos and then they undertook a merger with a company even more chaotic. People were not centered.

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.
