About Orange County's Credit Union
Orange County’s Credit Union offers the access, security, and stability of any high-profile bank, with access to over 28,000 CO-OP Network ATMs, as well as investment options, auto loans, and mortgages. We offer lower loan rates and fewer fees, based on the strength of our over $947 million in assets. Instead of automated call centers, our service reps offer “one-on-one” service. And unlike today’s banks, we’re a member-owned, not-for-profit financial institution. Which means all revenues are shared among our 79,000 members. Since our inception over 70 years ago, we’ve cultivated steady, sensible growth.
But we’ve never lost sight of our original goal: personal service built on a stable financial foundation. The history of Orange County’s Credit Union is the history of commitment. Commitment to personal service. Commitment to stable growth. And commitment to constantly earning the trust of our members, through every season of life. With 11 branches located in Orange and Riverside Counties, and Long Beach, we remain a strong, well capitalized organization positioned for growth with our Members First Philosophy at the heart of our strategic vision. The credit union philosophy of “people helping people” inspires Orange County’s Credit Union’s participation in a number of programs to help our local communities. We’re proud of our spirit of involvement and volunteerism and invite all interested members to join us as we support our communities. A few of the Credit Union’s recent community focuses included: Children’s Hospital of Orange County (CHOC), Financial Education, Orange County Human Relations Commission, Santa Ana Zoo,School Supplies Drive, Second Harvest Food Bank, and Working Wardrobes “Cinderellas For Life”
What employees say
“That Senior management walks the talk. When the CEO takes the time to listen, and every branch and department is able to send a representative to the Coffee with the CEO meetings, it speaks volumes.”
“Probably the "Life" training series that we have had last year and this year. Also the PDP training to be able to understand how to handle transactions based on someone's personality traits. ”
“My manager allows me to use my skills to the best of my ability. My manager also provides me with constant feedback, which shows me that she truly cares about me and my career growth.”
“Pretty much everything. She is a terrific communicator and is a very "down to earth" person. One feels that they can completely place their trust in her.”
“I feel that I am personally known and appreciated for my individual talents. I am appreciated for being me, and that is a great feeling!”
