Pros

Onsite cafeteria, decent benefits, GEM award recognition

Cons

CoBank is the kind of company that will use you and throw you away. I was a part of recent layoffs but in all honesty, I’m glad I was laid off. I was very close to a mental breakdown. There is zero work life balance. I was aware of many employees (including myself) who were working hours well into the night most days. The executives are a bunch of self-important people who don’t care about their employees, just when they can buy a new car or another vacation house. The CEO spent over $300,000 on an art piece in the lobby, but many people can’t afford the cost of living in Colorado. The amount of money spent on nonsense is ridiculous. They took away free soda from the employees but the CEO regularly flies on private jets with his wife and dog. Horrible place to work if you value yourself as a human being. Processes are difficult, it is impossible to keep things moving when you have to go through multiple channels for simple things. Can barely get IT to deal with simple issues, half the time you have to figure out how to fix things on your own.
