Pros

- Rewards top performers, easy to stand out and earn exposure to strategic initiatives if you know what you're doing. - Culture is very good and flexible to accommodate family and personal needs. - Several (10-15) phenomenal managers/leaders that singlehandedly keep the company progressive and competitive.

Cons

- Pay is not competitive for professional positions. Only way to get the pay appropriate for a position is to get another job offer and pressure ORNL to match. - HR is extremely conservative and as a result, serves as a chokehold on the organization. Millennials will NOT want to work here if the current HR strategy is maintained. - Volunteer Board is outdated with zero incentives to maintain company profitability. Pay these people based on company performance before it's too late!

Pros

Company goals and employee appreciation is great. Internal promotion is widely offered. Co-workers are friendly.

Cons

While the downsides are minimal they are almost daily and are unavoidable. As in any customer service based position you will deal with disgruntled members. Sales are also hammered into you. Asking every member to apply for a credit card or sign up for a service or product makes you feel robotic. You will also be asked to do cold calls. If this kind of sales are your thing- rethink.

Pros

Great work family environment, fantastic way to start out in the industry,

Cons

Got the past few years have had a very volatile executive management, which had trickled down as an unclear path for the future. Recent policy changes have made this once obvious COMMUNITY credit union act like a bank run by profit-seeking shareholders.
