      Pros

      They pay you and it's a Credit Union not a Bank

      Cons

      Your opinion does not matter at all, from the CEO down, everything is based on whether or not very specific people (CEO included) likes you or not. There is absolutely no effective leadership, no protection of member information and accounts and no desire to improve and do what's right for the changing banking industry. Decisions are made on a whim with no informed information behind it.

      Pros

      Good people. All the employees seem to like where they work. Fairly flexible schedule as a salaried employee Free breakfast once a week...

      Cons

      Management does not listen to their employees. Not much room for growth as management has their favorites, so prepare to kiss butt. Slow moving decision process for any changes, not a leading edge credit union. Will try and pay you very little if they can, always negotiate. Lots of turnover for all of these reasons

      Leadership, where?

      Pros

      Paid health insurance for individual, decent paid time off, but not great: 2 weeks vacation must accrue. Some of the managers really care about you and try to be flexible. Ability to transfer to a different branch to work in front line positions as openings become available. Usually promote from within.

      Cons

      Poor leadership. No concern for employees only the bottom line. Front line staff only work half day on Saturday, but are required to take a full day vacation if they want a Saturday off. Employees are chastised for using sick time. Executives do not allow managers to manage their own employees; stuck between two different objectives and the executive always wins. Not enough staff to cover amount of work. Very poor salaries and raises. Not competitive within industry or local organizations. Very little employee development, all geared towards sales and tellers. Advancement is minimal; you may see a promotion with a title change, but they give you literally ten to twenty cents an hour to take the new position. Very high turnover. Low employee morale. More people are looking for jobs than they realize.
