Pros

Not much actually… nothing just works right.

Cons

Canada Life, sister company of Empower, They hired a Director from Different state thinking that person will make amazing changes to the company, instead of changing culture, he started targeting the local people and mentally harassing them to make them quit, then he started hiring people from his state and his previous company to fill up the positions and create his own territory to rule. When you reach out to the person in regards to any office issue, first he needs to feel the lady who went with the issue, second thing scan the lady from top to bottom without any regards to people watching. Misusing his position for personal gains, probably company should investigate a little more on what exactly is happening. Parents trust you guys and send their daughters to work during the night. Great West Global one day you will be responsible for some poor lady’s life. It’s the TRUTH People like him are the reason why there is hate war between North Indians and South Indians.
