Pros

Good health insurance and 401K match, Time off is generous and you're not hassled too bad when you request a day here and there. Gives back to the community.

Cons

Rampant favoritism/nepotism. "Yes Man" culture that won't say no to the high ups when they lay more and more and more work on staff. Now having tellers do MSR work and vice versa. Not very pleasant dealing with back office, with some exceptions. Some are great and helpful and know what they're doing, others are flat out rude and not helpful at all, and could care less about member service and just want to get the member off their line as quickly as possible. Lower managers are so-so. Some care for their members and stick up for their staff, only to have higher ups derail their efforts. Major disconnect between those who deal with members on a regular basis and those who do not. Middle management is really just a puppet in the hands of the 5th floor and can't or won't stand up to the higher ups who just dole out more and more of their crazy ideas that continue to run people off.

Pros

Credit union as a whole tries to create a good work environment, Benefits are good and 401k match was 8%

Cons

Extremely poor pay for amount of responsibility and risk. Most other departments had pay bands widened but ours stayed the same. Constant fighting between management in collections department. Extremely unprofessional upper management with continuous bullying of supervisors. Large Overlap between supervisors and managers duties with poor delegation of tasks between them. Huge difference in roles for individual contributors that are all the same pay grade. Extremely poor performers are not held accountable, some are terminated but others continue to create large amounts of extra work for others. The amount of workplace drama that is allowed is appalling and is caused by 2-3 employees that contribute little to nothing to the department. 4-5 employees went to hr about these issues and management immediately retaliated against this, everyone was automatically in trouble for something or another. Hr agreed with absolutely everything I brought up, but there was little that could be done without escalating this higher within hr. It really seemed like nothing would change. I left voluntarily and relocated out of state.
