Pros

The members are fantastic to work with

Cons

We had our annual Branch Managers meeting last month and a senior director told all of us. 1. That we choose to work in this position. 2. Our credit union has chosen to change the way we run our branches. 3. It is your choice to stay in the position or move on. All of our middle & upper management in retail has come over from Bank of America. What has changed in the last year is that we are doing everything we did at BOA 10 years ago and we are no BOA. They are trying to micromanage everything and hoping that underperforming employees leave the company. Only performing employees are leaving due to lack of quarterly bonus and the micromanaging. The focus is only on our numbers and they are using L/P/D as smoking mirrors. Every conference call should not end with performance matter if we truly care about our members.

Pros

Generous employee loan discount, hybrid work schedule, professional development opportunities, Fresh fruit is a nice touch.

Cons

Small desks and crowded to co-workers which creates distraction and difficulty at times to concentrate due to noise. Hotelling desk locations often "raided" of equipment. One day you'll get there and you're all set and the next time docking station of other equipment is gone.

Pros

Nice location, easy access, good D&I

Cons

I worked here for two years, the Pay scale was so low you had to work two jobs if you’re a single person. They have the customer service representatives doing sales, and then find ways to not give sales bonuses because your customer service levels aren’t high enough. I had worked in customer service for eight years and I’m still in customer service at another institution and never have I seen such ridiculous rules. If you have to send a request to another department and they call them back your first call resolution is crap. And remember this is a sales team so they pay you so little and work really hard to not give you a bonus. I talked to a Work coworker who stated that now they don’t get their quarterly bonuses because they have to be at 110% of First call resolution to get the quarterly sales. Bonus makes zero sense.
