Pros

Steady employment. Health insurance. 401k. You get to go home at 5:00PM. They have nice computers. Most of the credit union people are very nice.

Cons

You'll come aboard at the bottom of one big pyramid, never forget that. It doesn't matter what you know, or who you know, or how hard you work....you are at the back of the bus. CUNA is top heavy with a lot older employees making big salaries and benefits to keep bodies in seats so their 401k's and pensions can grow. That's not cynicism, that's reality. Don't get me wrong, they're nice people but, I didn't see any managers putting in more than 30 hours a week. And that was pre-COVID. Don't try to reach any of them before 10 or after 3. You won't find them unless your branch is on or near a golf course. It's not happening. You are on your own.

Pros

Competitive pay and good benefits

Cons

Way too much going and l everything is a priority. When concerns are brought up as management is struggling to stay above water daily due to leading multiple teams, having a dozen or more priorities and being in back to back meetings every day, the concerns get brushed off and manager is told to figure it out. Lack of long term departmental vision from Director and constant shift in direction. Director does not care about team members and when concerns brought up from team members through the manager to Director, they get brushed off. So much restructuring going on constantly and leades get replaced every few years due to that. Concerns about more outsourcing down the road as new 3rd party company is starting to take a major application and moving data to their data centers. New major solutions get picked without looking at multiple vendors and any research. Director has a tyrannical leadership style and shuts down conversations and suggestions from management. Director only cares about his image to his peers and people above him and does not care about people reporting to him or people that his managers lead. Management and individual contributors morale is low due to above reasons. Not a good long term place to work.
