Pros

I have never worked for an employer as generous and accommodating as Fortera Credit Union. They go above and beyond to keep employees happy which is extremely challenging in this day and age. I think that is noteworthy because most companies have a tendency to put profits and/or shareholders first with very little regard for overall employee satisfaction. The benefits are amazing, and employees are recognized for their hard work regularly. They even front load 40 hours of PTO at beginning of the year which is almost unheard of in my experience working at other credit unions. I honestly can't think of a better place to work and grow in my career!

Cons

I can't think of any at this time.

Pros

The culture in departments, everyone in each department gets along with each other

Cons

Pay is not equal. I did a job that was more demanding plus remote, skyrocketed my goals every month - but their title was glorified with less work because they were in branch and because of that make $7-9 dollars more an hour. Completely unfair wages. Also you have to make sure you get everything in writing because they will turn on you and go back on what they said, even with saved messages, denying things they wrote. Managers will also pick favorites and let them get seats with anything while getting mad at other employees for doing the same thing.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. Fortera's strives to provide a positive work environment where all team members are treated fairly and feel valued and respected. Pay equity is essential to this belief and Fortera uses a formalized pay structure with salaries based not only on the duties and responsibilities of each position, but the knowledge, skills and experience of the team member in the job. Also, we understand that honesty and transparency are key to building trust and maintaining strong relationships in the workplace. We encourage all team members to speak up if they feel this has not been their experience and provide our team multiple channels to do so. If you would like to provide further feedback back about your personal situation, please feel free to contact HR directly. We would be more than happy to speak with you.
