A culture of values
At VSECU, we value our employees and all the characteristics that make them unique. We appreciate the individual qualities of our employees and our internal values reflect that. We call them the “Be” values: Be Real, Be Human, Be Brave, Be Playful, and Be Selfless.

Awards and accolades
VSECU encourages employees to bring every aspect of themselves to work. As a result, our employees are actively engaged in their work and constantly evolving as they build their personal and professional skills. When it comes to employee satisfaction, we don’t like to guess. Instead, we make sure we’re hitting the mark with anonymous surveys that allow employees to speak their minds. Here are a few things we’ve learned as a result:
Percentage of employees who like the people they work with at VSECU.
Percentage of employees who say their manager supports them in times of change.
Percentage of employees who note that they are proud to work at VSECU.
Employee recognition
We hold an annual gala to celebrate our employees. It’s a chance to dress up and let loose with our peers, and an opportunity to recognize achievements that have been earned throughout the year. For example, it’s a time to acknowledge employees who have been recognized as “Rockstars” of the industry. And a time to appreciate the shining examples of our “Be” values.
