Pros

Part of a large organization that is focused on providing a positive customer experience, generally a good work life balance, plentiful training opportunities and if desired, opportunities to volunteer on projects and increase your exposure.

Cons

Like most large companies, there are divisions that appear protected by management that are not as competitive as they could be, there is at least the appearance of favoritism in staffing and promotion decisions, while there is a regular focus on out-sourcing certain roles and functions (e.g. finance, systems).

No work life balance

Pros

Good benefits, stable company, inclusive environment

Cons

Workplace Solutions, formerly Retirement Services is treated like a second class group compared to their flagship insurance businesses. There are constant rumors they are going to sell off the retirement business. Most departments are extremely short staffed but if you get paid overtime it’s not too bad. If you’re salaried they just keep piling on the work because they expect you to get the work done no matter how many hours you have to work. Investment in systems and technology is far from robust so we work with old, outdated systems that just slow us down. If you want to work here avoid any job in Enfield.
