Pros

Good starting salary at $15 approx. Decent benefits for full time, with 2 weeks paid vacation

Cons

Dropping dividend returns Less branded products for member promotions Large shift to predominantly part time employees Part time employees must work 6 days a week and no Saturdays off Secret Shopping (MEEs) are used as a threat for termination. This entails meeting a minimum of 4.52 out of 5. There are 5 categories which includes presentation, quality of service, accuracy, knowledge and up-selling. The up-selling portion is the smallest category but holds the most weight. If the shopper marks not getting a cross-sale, it ruins the whole score, even if the other 5 categories are perfect scores, the result is under 4.5. In other words, if you're great at your job with perfect service scores and consistently positive comments from the shoppers but not at selling, you get written up. 3 bad MEEs = termination. This company now only cares about the bottom line and no longer the service. The application for A+ FCU and the 2 week training states that the teller position is NOT a sales focused job. The focus is on the member, cross selling when you see a need, but not required to push products and close the sale with every member that comes through.

A+ Federal Credit Union Response

Thank you for your review. We appreciate the feedback and that you took the time to provide some advice. At A+FCU, we do not ask our team members to push or dump products onto our members. We expect that as service providers mentioning a product or service that would benefit our members is a reasonable request. It is not our intent that the Member Experience Evaluations (MEEs) be the sole indicator of an employee’s performance. They are intended to be a support tool for managers to utilize when coaching employees for service in line with our Core Values. As service providers, we must be the one to offer a product or service that will help our members. If we do not ask for their business, someone else will.—Rob Tomasino, Chief Operations Officer & Tricia Lewis, AVP Human Resources

Pros

Great support system and training to get you started. Great resources and although they hold you back for a while and have to "babysit" you, its for the better until you are fully ready.

Cons

Health insurance price increased and is barely covered by the raise they are giving this year. With the price of inflation you are losing money continuing to work in this position. Bank of America tellers are now earning 25 per hour. Can A+ make this a reality to help cover their employees cost of living? I know many employees who are struggling to survive on this salary, and they even have to work mulitple jobs to keep their family aloat. And are now stuggling more with the health plan increases? That doesn't seem like it should be the case.
