Pros

Offers fairly competitive pay for outside new hires.

Cons

Offers little to no advancement for internal employees and offers base pay only to internal promotions when they happen. No negotiations, while someone from the outside will get paid 10-20k more with the same education and skills. HR Department staff has been a revolving door for the past 5 years and new rules come with each new group that hardly fill a need. Just a new person wanting to do things the way it was done at their last job and then leaves, so that another new person can be hired for the position and change everything all over again. No faith in being able to talk to anyone in HR as there is no feeling of confidentiality or anything close to the safe feeling an employee should have when talking to someone in an HR department.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We work hard to invest in our people and compensate our team members for their hard work and accomplishments. We conduct periodic wage benchmarking to evaluate industry standards to stay as competitive as possible. We take a wholistic approach to total compensation, understanding that it includes salary, benefits, potential incentives, and more. We understand that change in critical departments such as Human Resources can be frustrating and take time to build trust. We strive to provide an environment where employees feel valued, challenged, and confident, which includes supporting and coaching both employees and managers to communicate effectively and solve problems directly and respectfully. KCU recognizes and respects all employee’s privacy and maintains confidentiality, limiting information to those who have a business need to know. Please know that we are listening and care about your feedback. We would like to know more about your concerns. Please reach out to your Manager, Human Resources, or any member of the Senior Leadership Team so that we can learn more about your concerns and address them effectively.

Pros

Lots of really genuine people on the lower tiers that want to help. Benefits - new employees are offered 3 weeks paid vacation. Lots of employee events. Hybrid working arrangements.

Cons

Subpar pay - HR won't deny it and uses the benefits as the reason why. Huge disconnect with the CEO. Bargain basement software that breaks all the time. Department - specific training is non-existent, they expect you to sink or swim. Basic mistakes can lead to formal write-ups and termination - they will urge you to resign and claim "we won't deny your unemployment claim".
