Pros

IT infrastructure department do not have any Pros that would out do the Cons including politics, mistreatment by management and favors to pet employees by management

Cons

Tech infrastructure has been full of dirty politics and power abuse by incompetent senior management. Few highest level executives have been recently asked to resign due to mismanagement of the some of the most visible and important projects. Uncontrolled dirty politics was so commonplace to an extent even the lower level tech employees were affected and we lost a several very talented employees .

Pros

There are some nice people who truly believe in the credit union's mission.

Cons

This place is a weird, micromanaging hell. You work long hours for absolutely no reason, projects are treated with urgency when it's not that serious, and people like to feign DEI, but don't actually practice it. The entire culture feels brainwashed and backward, and senior management often fails upward. There are process gaps up and down the organization. The internal surveys are absolutely wild when it comes to how miserable people are, even with the so-called Dream Team nonsense.
