Position: Senior Business Development Specialist
Employee Since: 2013
"Prior to my career at ALEC, I always felt like I was unseen by management. But here, I feel like my work is respected and valued. I don’t feel like I’m treated as a number, but as an actual person. Everyone, from part-timers to upper management, are always helpful and supportive. And the benefits are unbelievable! The 401k match, the PTO, the health insurance options, everything is designed with me and my family in mind. Sometimes, ALEC doesn’t feel like a company, but rather a large family. I can’t see myself anywhere else but here!"

Jen Stoerp
Position: Senior Mortgage Loan Originator
Employee Since: 2000
"If you are considering ALEC as your future career, you have made a positive life-changing decision. I have called ALEC my work home for the past 24 years and continue to thrive each day. As a credit union in the financial industry, ALEC can be set apart from competitor financial institutions for better rates, less fees and personalized service where you are not just a number – you are a NAME.
Key loyal members that I have worked with for mortgages, auto loans, new accounts and stock loans continue to work with me and follow me over the years for future credit union business. The products we offer our members are beneficial, cost effective and financially make sense. Whether it is a mortgage loan, consumer loan, home equity, savings accounts, I am confident in the product I am offering. The savings alone will add up. While we are a small enough company to connect and communicate with each other, we are large enough to make an impact shining through to our membership base.
I hope you will consider ALEC as your future workplace and experience what a difference you can make in our members’ lives."
