Pros

Great retirement contribution matching, friendly coworkers/managers, learning opportunities, annual performance incentive, salary is standard

Cons

Lack of consistency among expectations from branch to branch and among departments. A lot of changes happen during short periods of time and can be challenging to adjust to/enforce. Culture and integrity has always been important at Members 1st, but it appears it’s gradually becoming less important as the company grows. PTO package is less than most competing financial institutions.

Pros

Amazing community and family feel. Lots of promotion form within. Growth opportunities. Tuition help.

Cons

They focus hard to make sure people are never laid off, so HR is careful about how many people they hire, which is great, but also not great when your team needs more people but you can't get anymore people. Some people get away with doing the bare minimum yet still get promotions and praise.
