A solid organization that is community focused
Pros
The leadership remains engaged with employees; our CEO meets with all new employees to have lunch and talk about the values of the credit union. Leadership Development program allows you with hands on time to our CEO and a high level overview of the credit union. Regular all staff meetings allow the staff to keep in touch with how the cooperative is performing and to recognize one another with Ben and Jerry's awards for going above and beyond in their service to one another. Outstanding perks and benefits; the 401(k) match is unparalleled and the student loan interest reimbursement is a wonderful add that very few employers offer.
Cons
The organization runs lean and for some that can be a challenge/difficult to adapt to. If you enjoy a fast pace and being busy the entire time you're here this is the fit for you. If someone is looking for a place where you come and put in your 40 hours/go home it may not be the best organization for you. We are also growing so keeping the family feel will become harder as we move to additional metro areas; however, credit goes to the leadership for continually discussing and evaluating ways that we can keep the culture intact.
