Pros

CoBank has a great company mission and family-friendly culture. Benefits are good. Remote work has become much more accepted with time. The culture being brought in IT with the new management is vastly different than what it used to be and what it is outside of IT.

Cons

If you are in IT, be mindful of the big changes that have come since late 2023. Many people were laid off in 2024 to accommodate the new structure. The plan is to build new and move away from systems that are currently widely used. The frustrating thing for is for end users may not have the support they need for IT applications that they are still using on a regular basis. And the people supporting current applications are spread very thin and expected to support these while building new ones.

Pros

Financially speaking CoBank is a stable company. The yearly bonus payout is competitive,

Cons

It's referred to as "CoBank nice" which is another way of saying it's a passive-aggressive culture. If you dislike endless meetings, this environment can be frustrating. Strong resistance to change at the leadership levels - despite claims of being focused on transformation, real progress is very limited. Extremely slow pace. Recent months have brought significant organizational and leadership changes, but very little acknowledgement about the impact those changes have on associates. PTO is definitely not competitive.
