Pros

I loved my time there. The culture is great. The company is run more or less very well and organized. They have a clear vision and identity. I’ve never seen better benefits and the pay was decent.

Cons

HR is maddeningly difficult to work with. To say communication with them is frustrating is an understatement. I never felt like they had employees best interests in mind. Trying to move through the company is so difficult it’s almost impossible. Despite being an exemplary employee who exceeded goals I was never able to get an interview with any internal hiring manager. I was clear that I wanted to stay with WSECU and grow my career but WSECU through their actions did not feel the same. When I asked HR about what I could do to get an interview for career growth jobs they said I would need 100% of the job requirements listed and that 95% wasn’t good enough. When I brought up the fact that when I’m looking for a higher position I’d never have a 100% qualifications and that they’re basically telling me I need to leave to grow my career the response was “Yeah that’s a good point” and literally never followed up with me after that. So shortly after I applied for career growth opportunities outside of the credit union and went where my talents were valued.

It’s great to hear that you loved your time at WSECU. Thank you for sharing your feedback and your ideas on how we can improve on our internal advancement. We’re sorry that your experience with People & Culture Services was not positive. We love to see team members who want to grow their careers at WSECU, and we’re proud to say that we have many long-tenured employees. For this reason, it’s not uncommon for it to take some time for positions to become available, and for a candidate to find a role that meets their qualifications and desired career path. Each role has certain minimum requirements that one must fulfill in order to be considered, with the more specialized roles having more education and/or experience required. We understand it can feel discouraging, but it’s common for candidates to have to throw their hat in the ring multiple times before finding success – which happens often! While we certainly value and wish to retain our high performing team members, we recognize that sometimes their path will lead them away from WSECU, as yours did, and we wish you the best in your new role.

Pros

Members are the best part of WSECU

Cons

Not an environment that supports neurodivergent employees. People and Culture Services presents as supportive during onboarding, but once you file for accomadations or raise concerns about treatment or how policies are applied, communication can shift and become inconsistent. If you rely on clear expectations, direct responses, or consistent application of policy, be aware that those may not hold once issues are formally raised. If you come here because they are convincing at least save everything and learn employee rights, because they won't tell you those.
