I have been working at Avadian Credit Union full-time (More than 10 years)
Pros
Avadian offers an extremely competitive benefits package that a lot of companies don’t offer anymore. They offer extensive training and continuously look for ways to improve technology. During the COVID-19 pandemic they wasted no time ensuring that the staff stayed safe while still operating for their members. There is room for advancement and they truly try to place the right people into positions that they’ll be successful in. I feel very fortunate to work at Avadian and would recommend them to anyone.
Cons
Staffing can sometimes be an issue but I think that’s pretty much anywhere you work.
