Pros
BECU has a great history in the Puget Sound, and continues to be a great contributor to the local community. It is values driven for the most part, and member centric. Also a very healthy company - growing to serve the needs of more members. Very generous incentive/bonus program; very good wellness program/benefits.
Cons
Some growing pains associated with changing from a local service base to a larger, more competitive organization. Some pockets of resistance to change, and slow rates of change in areas like IS/IT impact both employees and member services. Main HQ location is inconvenient for a variety of reasons including limited mass transit options. Lots of neighborhood locations, so I'm hoping that is a benefit to employees that they can work closer to home and reduce commute times.
