      Poor leadership/Dissapointing CU taking a nose dive

      Manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Maybe a handful of good employees are left not enough to save this disgrace of a CU. Destined for failure. Convinced

      Cons

      Where do I start. A long time ago this was a company to be proud of. Great people solid culture. Then something happened (lakers and covid) and we saw how weak senior management really was. They let everyone down an 25 employees paid for it by getting laid off with no explanation to anyone. Good people who made a difference with employees just let go and senior leadership who has no clue as to how to run a CU left with their bonuses and employees now having to do their job and 2 others because they are so under staffed. HR is not there for employees, HR is there to cover the faults and mistakes of the company and protect company not employee. Trust no one there. The moment you give feedback that is not praising senior management or management period you are looked at negatively. Too much politics. They forgot the meaning of what a CU is. They lost their way. Stay away from here unless you like to be over worked and not valued. Dissapointing.

      We appreciate your many years of service to First Entertainment, and think you’d be pleased to know that there have been several new additions to the leadership team since the time your review was written. They have been and will continue working with employees throughout the credit union to make First Entertainment one of the best places to work and build on the legacy of more than 50 years of incredible service to our members. - People Operations, Human Resources 9/26/22

      Pros

      Seeing co-workers and knowing together you try to make a difference.

      Cons

      It’s toxic. No organization, no communication. CEO is the worst every one is scared of her. They work you to death. No work life balance. As an employee you never feel appreciated. You are never good enough. Due to their poor management and poor investment in Lakers lost a lot of money as a result they laid off 25 employees, as if they were garbage. They said we don't have money so we have to fire people people but senior leadership got promotions, raises and they are still hiring new people. The question is why are we hiring people If we cant afford it and we let go of 25 employees. The employees just kicked to the curb. Employees and managers now have to pick up all the extra work from the other employees that were let go, not say anything because they are afraid they are next. Most of the employees including my self are looking for jobs elsewhere stay clear from this place unless you like being treated unfair, and love anxiety.

      Work from home during the pandemic.

      Used to be proud of working at first entertainment. Not too sure what to think now! 25 employee laid off, CEO was fired, 2 Branches closing, and lots of uncertainties.
