Pros

Insurance is amazing. Great paid time off and sick time. CEO is the bomb. Lots of perks to working here that shows the company cares.

Cons

Wish pay was higher, even if it meant to sacrifice other things such as stock options, and decreased 401k contributions

Thank you for your post, it is great to see your comments. I will correct you and say the CEO is not the BOMB but rather the luckiest guy around. We have a great team and are just scratching the surface of what we can do for our clients. #Gladtobe@WaFdBank

Pros

WAFD is a very stable financial institution. The benefit package is designed for long term employment.

Cons

Base salaries for entry level positions may be lower than competing institutions, leading to turnover.
