Pros

There is a great work/life balance.

Cons

Salary is not competitive with other banks in the area. Bonuses were taken away, so my annual salary was cut by about 15%. Upper management doesn't seem to care about any associates other than managers. Not much opportunity for growth.

Pros

Wafd has been around for years. They are a portfolio lender and clients like that their loans are not sold.

Cons

This organization caters to white men. True lack of diversity and the pay is horrible.

Sincerely sorry you feel this way about us. This is not the way I feel, or what I believe in and I think our actions demonstrate that we value diversity. I wish you all the best.
