Advice to Senior Management

N/A

Pros

Work is very easy. For your performance to be acceptable, you just pretty much need to show up, not much effort required beyond that.

Cons

LOTS of mediocrity.

Promotions not merit based at all.

Dramatically reduced employee benefits (although only the ones that did not affect senior management were cut).

Advice to Senior Management

I recommend doing something to change the "our goal is bare minimum" mentality and make the compensation more merit-based (instead of just talking about it for years and years and not actually doing anything about it).

Pros

The vacation/sick days (26/15 respectively) is pretty much unmatched in any other company out there.

Cons

Management does not take accountability for their actions and will never admit when they are at fault.

No room for advancement unless you are friends with the right upper management executives.

Advice to Senior Management

Treat your staff like human beings and not like small caged animals. Stop all the micro-managing.

Pros

holidays and sick days are the best

Cons

commuting to from home to work

Advice to Senior Management

Just because Superviser or Manager is in your job title does not mean you really fit that role.

Pros

The best reasons to work for this Credit Union are for the benefits. You only work 37.5 hour weeks and 7.5 hour days. But, when you get your pay every 2 weeks, you earn 8.15 hours of vacation. You get 2% perecent off of any loan while you are an employee. Yearly bonuses range anywhere from 10%-16% of current total earnings for the year. However, the bonuses are approved by a Board of Directors that oversees the Credit Union.

Cons

The competence of senior employees. These people seem to get promoted based on years of service. Management does express is gratitude for lower stature employees but often with oppresstion. Management just sits in their office directing traffic, basically doing nothing, yet reap all the benefits when it comes time for bonuses. The aforementioned may not be true, but this is the impression that is giving off so it may as well be true.

Advice to Senior Management

Listen to the suggestions of ALL you colleagues. This especially includes the people below you.
