Wafd Bank Named One of America's Best Employers

“It has been a joy to work for such a supportive bank. The Pocatello Community holds a high level of importance to me. WaFd Bank has allowed me the support and opportunities to impact this great place (Pocatello/ Chubbuck area). WaFd Bank aligns with many of my personal values, from the Washington Federal Foundation grants, to supporting me in serving Pocatello as a city councilman. The support of the bank and my team help me to positively impact the areas in which we live and do business. Change or impact is best made from within the community. Thank you WaFd for your continued support!”

“This is a place where you can grow your skillset and you can really do things that interest you and that aren't necessarily in your job description…I like to make a difference, and WaFd has given me the opportunity to make a difference for people around me.”

Melissa Gruben
SVP of Payment Operations

“I recently joined the Washington Federal Foundation Board, and I feel so fortunate for the opportunity to be involved in giving back to the amazing non-profits within our communities. I love being able to support the non-profits that do so much good in our communities for our under-resourced community members, it is such an amazing feeling. I love working for a company that has a focus on giving back, and encouraging their employees to be a part of it as well.”

Jen Peterson
SVP of Lending Operations

“At WaFd our bankers are encouraged to invest in and experience the communities we serve. This starts with supporting strong financial roots with our small business community. We understand that small businesses doesn't mean small impact. They provide the necessary services we use daily. Being a trusted partner to our business community is essential to promote financially stronger communities.”
