Pros

Benefits, insurance, location and the hard working people who put up with a lot

Cons

Not sure where to start, I am watched wherever I go and clocked when I go to the bathroom, employees are not given much independence nor freedom, if there is no work, you are expected to stay in your seat and read their handbook instead of having the availability to leave early. The culture is horrible and people quit left and right. If you are more than 5 minutes late to work chances of you getting fired are high after the third time. If there is a family emergency, dont expect them to be flexible. Micromanagement is at an all time high. They take their employees for granted, even if you have been in this place for longer than 3 years. Favoritism runs rampant. Hard to build relationships with coworkers for the sake of the company since we have to be quiet and act like robots in a jail like setting. Rare to work from home and YES other Credit Unions offer that possibility so what they say in training is wrong. I thought training was an exaggeration when they said work over EVERYTHING but that is their mentality and if you cant put this company over everything expect to be fired. Even if you quit, they will state you were fired. Oh and if you ask for vacation, there is a 50/50 chance theyll say yes. If they say no and you argue with them, you have the option to quit or per them "You'll be fired!"

Pros

Benefits are ok, some employees are nice

Cons

A lot of favoritism going on and secret relationships some managers are just straight unprofessional , basically anyone is being put there. Many complaints and HR does nothing, many people manage to not work and since they are the managers favorite no one can say a word. Do not work here if you don’t want crazy drama
