Pros

Good health benefits, pretty consistent hours, lots of free coffees and lunches paid by the company, you are given vacation hours up front upon hire, you learn a lot about banking and businesses and meet lots of interesting people

Cons

Understaffed, clientele can be verbally abusive when they have to wait longer than 5 minutes, they push you to sell products and services and if you're not charismatic or persuasive or good at selling then you won't like it, you're in the same room as everyone else all day and everyone can hear your conversations and hear immediately if you fail

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.
