Pros

Washington Federal really strives to be a great company to work for, and they are highly community-minded. Amen! They really seem to encourage employee advancement, plus management tries very diligently to act upon suggestions and concerns that employees bring to them.

Cons

The one downside has been lack of thorough training on Washington Federal's banking methods, but our branch was purchased from Bank of America by Washington Federal with a bunch of others so they really had their hands full at the time.

Pros

Primarily remote work. Decent PTO after the 4th year.

Cons

Limited staffing and limiting overtime opportunities until the bitter end of potentially missing deadlines, which you are guilted into working. 2% "raise" every January and ZERO merit raises. Gutted profit sharing and profitability bonuses over time. Most recent bonus, which is tied to net profit after dividends, was given a result when the scale was never published. All previous bonuses had a floor-to-ceiling profit scale that showed the targets months in advance of the end of the bonus period.
