Pros

In this economy, I'm grateful to still have a job with benefits.

Cons

To get promoted or otherwise recognized, you must kiss ass to the ELT (Executive Leadership Team) and DLT (Divisional Leadership team) members. The ELT is more concerned about maintaining thier very health egos than the future of this company, the members they service or their employees. They claim they want this company to be a employee driven entity, yet, the numerous technology applications are antiquated or do not work. All are on seperate platforms, so employees need to enter the same information in numerous applications. Plus, not all information is updated in the same way, and sometimes, like insurance payments, are missapplied. The main office whiched was based in San Francisco for 100 years is now being split up and moved to Walnut Creek, Fairfield, Richmond, CA and Henderson, NV. They have closed one call center in Livermore and are almost done closing the 2nd call center in Elk Grove. 20% of Emergengy Road Service and membership calls are taken in Glendale, AZ, with the other 80% taken in Florida by individual contractors. There are times when the network is down and the Florida folks cannot connect to the ERS or Membership applications, and members are put into an unending call queue.

Pros

Pay is decent for those that have been here for sometime and do what they are suppose to do. I cant complain about that. Benefits seem to be on par with most companies out there. Large enough company to where IF something were to open up you could possibly learn something completely different but still related.

Cons

Senior Management cares little about anyone lower than middle management level. Deaf ears are turned to employees regarding system issues, training issues and morale issues. Senior management seem to live by shoot 1st ask questions later. I could go on with complaints, but really dont think it would be fair to AAA NCNU in this economic time. All companies are having to make sacrafices and adjustments.

Pros

- District Office Jobs are the best & Most Secure positions in the company. - Been in Business for 100 years. - Visions & Values Culture is a good idea in principal. - The people who work here are top notch & friendly. - Free AAA Membership, 10% off Auto & Home Insurance as an employee. - A relaxed environment to work in. - Starting Pay Is Usually Near Or Above Market Rate (if you know how to negotiate). - Low-Level Management Is In the Trenches with you. - An Internal Website allows all employees to voice their opinions on matters without retaliation.

Cons

- Senior Management has zero direction 98% of the time - The 2% of the time Senior Management has a direction, they will not relinquish that direction even if that direction is a money pit (For Example: Memberpoint & Clientview) - Career Advancement is non-existent for at least 99% of employees. - When someone from the 1% finds career advancement it is due to obvious favoritism. People are handpicked for positions IF they want someone from inside the company. - At Least 75% of the time, hiring takes place with people coming in from outside of the company. There is zero push from management to recruit from within & the tools provided to advance yourself are laughable at best. - AAA University sounds good on paper, but what you really have are a bunch of "classes" that are useless to every company except CSAA. - Visions & Values (Our Corporate Ethics/Motto) isn't practiced beyond Low-Level Management. Employees are even evaluated based on these very subjective terms & it directly effects a person's pay raise. - Speaking of Visions & Values, Senior Management quietly removed the value "We will treat each Employee As We Would A Member." - Senior Management isn't held accountable for their over expenditures & will merely cuts jobs to cover up their reckless spending on projects that fail during testing. - CSAA will happy roll out a buggy platform, that received zero improvements or fixes in testing, to the masses. No matter how big the crowd of employees are that tell them the system doesn't work, Senior Management will believe they are doing the right thing in "rolling the program out." - Will happily acknowledge that you are indispensable while treating you as if you are.
