Pros
Really great people and a family owned company that cares for their employees. Lots of long time employees and an employee stock program that can become substantial over time. Recommended as long as you are not in a technology role.
Cons
IT leadership is unqualified and lacks a strong strategy. This leads to a lot of reactionary, last-minute work that pulls directors and senior managers away from their teams and planned projects. The systems are generally very old and approaches outdated, the new management's grand plan for a "digital transformation" appears to be buying a better mousetrap. The few talented employees in IT are leaving quickly and the people who remain probably couldn't get a job anywhere else. Some of the most promising new hires left in a year or less, that's telling. Tech staff severely underpaid and the more senior you are, the worst your work-life balance is. I regularly worked 60+ hours / week. Heavy and unabashed favoritism for new people brought in from Bank of the West. You won't really work for Fremont Bank, but the Fremont division of BotW. I actually heard the CIO disregard something one employee said, then 5-min later a "golden child" from BotW said the same thing and all the sudden that's what needed to happen.
