Thank you for your post and happy to have you at WaFd Bank. I would be grateful to hear from you directly in terms of what you think we are missing in terms of day to day operations. Transparency is a good thing and you can't fix something unless you know about it. Please reach out to me directly. thx

Pros

Of all the banks I have worked for this is the least stressful environment

Cons

No way to increase my position, low pay. The only other position available position would be a personal banker which requires being a mortgage loan officer.

Thank you for your post and feedback. The reality of lower transactions in branches is that we are cross training more to offer more opportunities.

Being around for 103 years, we have lots that is out of date but we are working on changing that. In the last 3 years we have all new PCs, new commercial platform, new residential platform and this year we will roll out a huge improvement in our online and mobile banking....... lots to do but together we are making steady progress
