Pros

- I believe the pay was better than other financial institutions, but not significantly. - Good branch managers - Discounts were decent - I heard from coworkers that corporate life was nice but the managers weren't that great - They push for growth and development more than others

Cons

- Development opportunities are not the best - Expectations and long term goals change too often - They don't listen to their members - CEO is...different - Branch life morale is low - The whole family thing was weird. I realized we weren't "family" when we couldn't get a simple car loan approved. Then we got an approval at another Colorado CU for the lowest rate possible. -Pay was lower than other opportunities and the raises are discouraging. I left for a 30% increase in my pay

Thank you for sharing your candid review of your experience here. It’s essential to hear both the positives and areas of opportunity. We’re glad you found our pay competitive. Canvas strives to be a market leader in compensation. Our goal is to ensure fair compensation for all employees. As for discounts, we’re pleased you found them decent. Leadership styles can differ, and some leaders’ approach may not resonate with everyone. We’re committed to enhancing leadership effectiveness and fostering a positive work environment. We value continuous learning and encourage employees to take initiative in growing their careers here at Canvas. We understand that shifting goals can be unsettling, however it’s important that we’re able to pivot to market trends and changing business cycles, which can result in goals changing at times. Clear communication is vital, which is why we have so many different methods of communication across the organization (weekly emails, weekly podcasts, monthly video streams). Regarding branch life, we’re committed to creating a supportive atmosphere, and are actively gathering feedback and implementing new work initiatives based on the feedback we receive. Thank you for your time at Canvas, and we wish you success in your new job!

Hey, thank you so much for your review. We do enjoy yummy food and time together as a team here at Canvas. We also appreciate your feedback on work/life balance, we are always looking at ways for us to provide this in the best manner to our many different Canvas Family members. For example, our Communication Center roles now permit a hybrid work schedule. We are sorry that Canvas was not a good fit for you at this time in your career and we are wishing you all the best in your new opportunities!
