Stay away
Member Contact Specialist (Former Employee), San Antonio – May 21, 2013
Pros: decent pay
Cons: management, favoritism, hours
At first everything is great. Management is friendly and will work with your schedule, so that you are allowed to go to school. However the fairy tale ends quickly, and your realize management plays favoritism. Some co workers can come and go as needed and others have to jump through hurdles to get a day off. They change schedules every quarter, so – more... every quarter you have to ask your fellow coworkers if they will change schedules with you, so you can continue going to classes you paid for. Insurance is extremely expensive at this company and you will see half your paycheck gone if you have a family plan. Call center is a very small group so going to HR is not a option, do to the fact that management will find away to force you out. However if you are lucky enough to be one of the favorites, your time there will be a blast. ***Once again their idea of working with your schedule, is that you can trade with another member of your team if they say its ok.**** – less

There is alot of favoritism and if your not one of the favorites you will be miserable. A very disorganized credit union not consistant with the policies and procedures from one branch to the other. You have to fend for yourself with in this organization.
