Vantaggi

High relative compensation intended to keep new talent Work from home 1-2 days a week Flexible daily schedules: you can work pretty much any 8 hours of the day Mandatory that employees take one full work-week off per year, otherwise 'unlimited' PTO (subject to manager's approval, of course) Large yearly bonuses for all employees Good medical/dental insurance plans Best 401k matching you can get Will help pay for tuition or for certifications

Svantaggi

Too many management tiers causing frequent communication breakdowns and slowdowns due to every piece of new information having to make its way through the chain of command Much of management is out of touch with the work that goes on below them Too many meetings that could have been an email. People are afraid to communicate via email for fear of being held to something they said Still using technologies of the past, and only very slowly moving into the future Big projects are accomplished via pressure from above, not adequate project planning Project management and capacity management contribute to slowdowns by complicated and inefficient processes that don't bring real value Programmers often have project managers with no technical background as their direct supervisor

Vantaggi

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

Svantaggi

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.
