Pros

There were some very good employees that you felt a great connection with and could meet up with outside work

Cons

Sales. The culture seemed to be more like a bank where they wanted cross sale goals, monthly minimums and branch minimums. It was a competition between branches and you were made known if you weren’t the top. It was a “look at me” mentality. From branch to branch and between Admin and Branches there seemed like a big disconnect and the “merged” CU employees were the ugly ducklings

Great entry into retail management. No development track from there.

Pros

1. Member owned co-op 2. Give back culture 3. Market pay 4. Nice benefits

Cons

1. It doesn’t take long for great talent to “max out” in their career track 2. In retail, the finish line is constantly being moved to get that next promotion. Leaders will provide things to work on and once that’s complete, it’s never enough. 3. Promotions are given based on personal popularity, not performance.
