The Credit Union increased its entry-level starting salaries for all hourly positions this month. For frontline teammembers, base salaries will now start at $18 an hour and increase up to $27 an hour, depending on a teammember’s position and experience. This is well above the California minimum wage of $15 per hour (for employers of 26 or more employees). For branch teammembers, the starting hourly salary will begin at $20, with opportunities to earn up to $31 an hour.
