"This deal is not good for SAFE members.

"1) Loss of total control and autonomy of their capital, pricing, where they invest, etc.
 2) BECU has inferior rates, and a huge expense problem
 3) Little future investment for SAFE. 
 4) SAFE's legacy culture will not be acquired and assimilated.
 5) SAFE members absolutely will lose what they are used to.
 6) BECU and others avoid hiring in CA because of messy labor laws.       7) No local authority or autonomy. "

   Like comparing an apple with an outrage...
