This year hasn't been an easy one for the banking industry, but through positive and upbeat leadership, this Everett-based bank with 22 branches around the Puget Sound region seems to have weathered the storm to rave reviews. "Cascade Bank did great by their employees, avoiding layoffs as those around them in the same industry were downsizing," one employee tells us. Staffers credit a can-do, optimistic attitude and good communication among proactive managers for the persistence of high morale.
Employees here also say it's worth staying at Cascade because of the great opportunities for advancement, with a training program in place that enables even the most inexperienced people to work their way up the ladder if they so choose. And as a local bank, Cascade invites employees to spend one day per year doing community service on company time, making them feel like active members of not only a company, but the community as well.
