Pros

Benefits and flexibility of schedule

Cons

Ever since the merger with Columbia the bank has gone downhill for its IT department. Working us to the bone for three months straight, with only a cheap cell phone speaker and 3 hrs at a golf range as a thank you. CEO is forcing everyone to go back to the office with no exceptions.

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.
