Do NOT promote from within...

Pros

Great place to work for: - benefits - decent pay - bonus - 401k

Cons

They do NOT promote from within. All new postings require advanced degrees, certificates, and experience; however, nearly all the individuals in high ranking positions dont have even the least of these prerequisites. Ex. HR team is made up almost entirely of folks who accepted positions with little to no experience, by default. But all new (last 2-4 years) posted positions require HR certs, degrees, and years of experience. This eliminates the opportunity for internal employees to apply and grow in the same manner that the current CU leaders all did. They are completely unbalanced in this way. Their hiring decisions make no sense and do not match the culture they desire to emulate. They have lost many great employees and leaders because of this; the result is new leaders, at high levels who do not understand the culture and therefore interfere with their mission/ability to create and maintain their desired culture.

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed our generous benefits and compensation package. We are very proud of our culture at WSECU, and we always encourage our internal employees to consider applying for positions. In fact, we have had a lot of success with hiring from within, both in our HR department and the credit union as a whole. It is a balance - we value new perspectives that external hires can bring to the table, while 42% of our jobs filled in 2020 were by internal employees, a statistic we are very proud to share.

Pros

WSECU truly cares about it's employees. They provide good pay, amazing benefits and the atmosphere is so friendly. They're constantly thinking of ways to improve employees work lives, along with members. I'm a long term employee and like many others, left to see if the grass was greener. It's definitely not and WSECU understands. They welcome back great people who've tried the other side. I'm proud to be a WSECU employee.

Cons

It's a lot of hard work but it pays off.
