      Pros

      Comfortable work environment. Meeting new people. Easy to get hired. Employees are mostly young and just out of high school, so this gives them some experience.

      Cons

      No one stays for very long. Washington Federal employee relations spends all it's time on trying to fill the constant need for Customer Service Reps, because they leave so soon after hire, with very few staying more than a year. Not a good fit for anyone who wants to move up in a company, or for anyone looking for a satisfying long term position, especially in the CSR roles ! A lot of frustration and complaining among employees.

      Pros

      Beyond amazing overall compensation package! Can't beat the low premiums and high coverage! Free preventative, free diagnostic testing (MRIs, x-rays, CT scans). The company has paid the rising premiums costs for the last few years without passing the additional cost onto the employees. Even this year when the premium increased it was very minimal. I have family that pays much higher premiums with coverage not even a fraction of what we get offered! The 401K offered is better than anywhere else as well. Currently with a qualified employee's contribution of only 4% the company contributes 11%. Can't find that anywhere else! Our CEO is amazing and cares about making sure the employees and clients are well taken care of. What other CEO travels to branches and remembers your name after only meeting you once! His vision for Washington Federal is strong and with his guidance Washington Federal will continue being in the top!! Washington Federal gives you the tools and ability to grow within the company. If you put in the effort, so will Washington Federal! If you're looking for a company that you will be retiring from, look for further! Washington Federal is here for the long haul!

      Cons

      Honestly, I can't think of any cons of working with Washington Federal. I've never worked for a company that cares this much about its employees. I'm very fortunate to love where I work!
