Part-time workers get short end of the stick - Member Consultant BECU Employee Review

* Fluctuating week-to-week schedule * Part-time workers get half the training as full-timers but are expected to produce at a higher rate on an hourly basis * Sales goals are very aggressive, lots of pushing of loans, lines of credit, and credit cards to people who really don't want them * Another Seattle company that talks about its diversity but whose corporate hierarchy doesn't include a person of color * When talking to other part-time workers, there's a clear frustration over the wide gulf between what we're expected to do and what we're trained to do * Depending on what NFC you're at, the members can be friendly or very, very rude and demanding * Systems are antiquated and redundant. You have to fill out a form to fill out a form to fill out a form and if you miss anything QA will let you know and then your manager will let you know and then your assistant manager will let you know (Real Office Space vibe sometimes) * Because it's retail, lots of micro-management. On more than one occasion a manager interrupted my conversation with a member to make sure my email was organized (it was, just not the way the manager preferred). * Not really receptive to new ideas or explaining current ones. I often asked my manager why we did certain things and was often told it's because we have to with no further clarification to help me better understand my role.
