Poor company with an obsession for sales goals/income first not members or employees
Pros
No Pros. The company has grown but so has the cancer inside.
Cons
No one is safe at ESL. ESL is run like a communist country. You can not trust anyone. No one is your friend. Be paranoid because they are out to get you. Stress level is always high for everyone. Goals, people being fired daily, being watched and just a high stress environment makes it a boiling pot. Even the phones, computers and offices are bugged. Open your mouth and you could be the next one to exit. You are always being watched by someone. Big brother is all around you daily. You will never be free to be creative at this company. If you speak up to change things or try to make them better, you could be walked out for just trying to do the right thing. The group culture rules and is usually wrong. The management at ESL is usually clueless about what is going on. Management has meetings behind closed doors making decisions that are usually poorly planned out. Employees are never consulted. Many managers never even talk to their employees. What would it take to say good morning or acknowledge you exist. Its all about making money at the non profit credit union at any expense including taking advantage of the elderly. Its is for sure run like a big bank for profit, not a Credit Union. Employees can and will be sacrificed for the goal of greed at ESL. Greed is good. Get is good. All Members are predatory targets in the quest for goals and profit. Its an obsession. Members are sold products and service that are usually not in their best interest but that is not important because goals must be meet to keep your job at ESL. Forget morals or your conscience. Forget about doing the best for the member and the right thing. The management demands goals be obtained or heads will roll. And they do roll. Out the door. Failure is not an option at ESL. Even Managers get the shaft on a regular basis. Usually the ones with high integrity and dedication are let go. They do not fit in with the ESL Culture and never will. Most ESL employees/managemnet are sheeple. The have no ambition to get ahead. Most with ambition are long gone.Fired or they quit. The ESL employees do not question, think, buck the system and block out what is going on around them for a paycheck and a bonus. I can not recommend this company.
