Pros

I love working for Washington Federal it is a great company with supportive management that allows for open communication. Company has a strong foundation and history I am proud to be a part of. Upper management seems dedicated to making changes to help move the company forward without compromising its base values.

Cons

I feel my salary does not reflect my experience and while I am told I am doing a great job (always appreciated) I feel I am under paid.

Thank you for your hard work and feedback. We are proud to have you on our team! Washington Federal is very much a "total compensation" company. While the base pay may be lower, when you factor in the semi-annual bonuses, 4% 401(k) match and 7% contribution, company-paid life insurance, low insurance premiums, paid time off, and our 'promote-from-within' policy, we feel our total compensation package is actually quite competitive.
