After 10 years with the employer I needed to be done. We went through so many HUGE changes in those years that it was a constant whiplash of stress. The CU started out okay, they were for their members and I felt like my job made a difference. Now, they are basically a bank, everything is for the sake of growth and 'reaching 10 billion in assets.' The huge job changes that were made were also mostly unannounced, there was no transparency to employees. They also wanted constant feedback about the company, through surveys and such, asking for opinions, but then simultaneously scolded you for ANY negative seeming feedback. While our job duties and titles changed DRASTICALLY from what we were doing, or wanted to do, or applied for, it was shoved into our faces to 'be positive' and 'look at the big picture.' We were also often reminded that the salesy way we were moving was for income for the CU to pay us and keep our healthcare package. That is what alot of it all came down to, was the healthcare dangling over our heads. I 100% appreciate the health coverage, but I also busted my butt for it each day. And let me tell you, the reason that they don't take it away, is because if they did, there would be a MASS EXODEUS. So many long-time employees have quite or retired in the last three years, and the CU doesn't seem to mind-because these new hires make less than the tenured ones.
