Pros

Great company until merger. Fair salaries, great hours, excellent working conditions.

Cons

After merger, existing CCU employees, which have far more experience than merging credit union (North Island), were systematically laid off. Experience be damned. It's not what you know but who you know. The surviving manager of the department admitted that he had no previous management experience. That would be the first red light that he may not be the guy for the job.

Pros

Supportive coworkers, opportunities to gain banking and customer service experience, and exposure to different areas of the credit union. The organization offers educational benefits and professional development opportunities for employees.

Cons

Tuition reimbursement requirements and eligibility standards were not clearly defined in my experience. I came to the company as a student through the Handshake platform and relied on the employee handbook when enrolling in courses. During the reimbursement review process, additional documentation requirements and eligibility considerations arose that were not clearly communicated upfront. Employees considering the tuition reimbursement program should obtain all requirements, exclusions, deadlines, and documentation expectations in writing before enrolling in coursework.
