Pros

At my branch, it is not stressful, not fast paced all the time, which allows for building deep client and co-worker relationships. It is a set schedule and great for a work - life balance. WaFd is the Bank for a lot of Seattle Sports Teams and has been around Washington for over 100 years.

Cons

Can be a bit too slow for some folks and pay can be a bit more competitive.

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.
