Pros
I was lucky enough to find an incredible mentor at Columbia bank. I was also surrounded by a team of fearless employees that worked well together well and embraced our branch based culture of development and team work.
Cons
During COVID, staffing was an issue and training was stripped down to a minimum. This is a paper heavy environment that stretches the capacity of ABM's.

Pros
Benefits (read cons) My branch manager/ Co workers Almost everyone at the company is great to work with including upper management ( all very genuinely good people)
Cons
Overall I loved my branch however I ended up quitting due to our ABM being very covertly abusive and I was pregnant so I couldnt stay any longer for health reasons. Then the company that I thought had great benefits and integrity then asked me to repay vacation time that I had used because it technically wasn't accurred yet within the year, funny thing about that was I was forced to take it because of their strict covid policies. I got covid in the beginning of the year and instead of unpaid they used my vacation time. Columbia doesn't give you an unpaid option if you have vacation time. So I technically had the vacation but because I quit I was required to "reimburse them" for this benefit. Pretty tacky if you ask me especially since I was forced to quit over severe harassment not because I wanted to. Zero empathy.

Pros
Literally none. Do not work here.
Cons
Horrible pay. I got the same job elsewhere for literally twice what Columbia paid me. Horrible training. They train you by making you drink from a fire hose then making you feel bad for making mistakes.

Pros
Most people care about doing well
Cons
Process for loans is crazy slow
