Pros

The pay is ok but on the low side for technology. Flexible hours working around projects or task and personal life. So many nice folks to work with.

Cons

Several years back they stopped being a credit union and became more like a bank. The atmosphere is competing with other national big banks out there. You never hear them compare us to other credit unions in the state. Well except for Navy Federal credit union and USAA are now here in AZ and on the managements radar. Over half the technology used is over a decade old. People refuse to change to newer technologies, the famous line is "we have always done it this way" which seems to be the motto. Several years ago the core banking system was changed but then modified to act like the system they replaced. Updates to the new system now takes weeks to implement because of how heavily the modifications were made. Senior management is large and has been there for a long time. No one moves up without someone retiring or dieing.

Pros

There are a lot of hardworking people who have worked here a long time and genuinely care about the company.

Cons

Senior leaders dont care about employees or the company only their own careers. Finger pointing and blame is the name of the game. An environment where you are afraid to make a mistake. Leadership says the right things publicly but doesnt back up them up. The company is growing too fast. Power is going to top leaders heads. Please wake up and make this the best place to work again.
