Pros

Enjoyable environment to work in. Made life long friends. Encouraged to shadow others to learn new skills.

Cons

The people before profit promos are a joke. The 20% work force reduction shows that this company is profit driven. Layoffs were done shortly before the holidays. What did Santa bring you this year? A pink slip? Former VP of IAM had a reputation of being brought in to spear head these layoffs and move on after 3 years. If your company hires her, prepare to go job hunting.

Pros

The company initially had a strong focus on serving the community, but that appears to be shifting. The new management, predominantly from banking backgrounds, seems to be steering the policies in a different direction. BECU has an excellent work culture and is generally a fantastic place to be employed—unless you have a disability or health issues, in which case the experience isn't nearly as positive.

Cons

At my workplace, there's no designated sick leave, which means if I fall ill, I have to dip into my personal time off. This policy seriously undermines any notion of work-life balance. To make matters worse, navigating the disability leave management system is a nightmare. The company responsible for managing this aspect seems unaccountable for how they handle things, creating a prolonged and stressful process for me to get my disability pay. When I try to voice my concerns to management or the leave department, I'm told that I'm simply misunderstanding the situation because I'm unwell and should actually be grateful that we're covered by the leave management company. BECU is inclusive for their membership not their employees.
