Ladders and bots going down have always been a problem and I've come to conclusion that there's no way to fix it unless there's a change in the actual game code. The bots even have a problem going down ladders in official maps and the only tall ladder is found in the Parish 5. You're always going up the ladder towards the goal in officials. There's also a brush ent there to stop damage if you fall, although I don't think it's there for only the bots (trolling). You can always try to reduce it, like by making them stick to the ladder facing forward.
