Pros

Get promoted with no experience or skills. Mgr., Dir., Spvr, no problem... Just make sure you smile and keep your honest opinion to yourself. You will go a long long way here.

Cons

Being a teacher's credit union, you would think they value educated employees. Nope. They value employees who know how to get by with a smile. The workforce here is on a trial and error basis. But it's okay, they feed you here and they master celebrations to buy off your honest opinions. HR is non existent. staff - inexperienced and wanna bees. Might as well get a PEO. Employees value loyalty here because their skills are below average and not acceptable anywhere else. So they stay and get promoted even without the experience, skills and education. You wonder how Directors and Managers get promoted here. It's frustrating to work here when you're the only one who knows what you are doing and reporting to someone who absolutely cannot give you guidance and direction. Stay away!

Pros

Medical Plan is pretty decent for been such a small company.

Cons

Culture, Toxic leaders, Leaders do not address potential issues and favor the Woke culture because they are afraid of being reported. This credit union work environment is toxic and even that they say they are "chill" or best place to work at, it's all a lie. They are very passive agressive and will retaliate on you if you resign.
