Pros

Recent material pay increase, moving towards a short term pay scale, has been incredibly helpful to me. WaFd has always embraced my drive to move up and given me ample opportunities to prove my capabilities and improve my craft. Best company I have ever worked for.

Cons

Some technology is still outdated, training materials are located on several platforms, so sometimes difficult to find current processes.

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.
