Pros

Some benefits, not much else

Cons

New employees especially in the Transfers department are thrown into complicated roles with zero real training, no documentation, and no support, yet the company expects perfection. Managers who aren’t trained themselves are somehow responsible for our performance reviews, which is unbelievable. The workload is unrealistic, the stress is nonstop, and the weekly meetings are pointless and never improve anything. Mistakes (which come from lack of training) are handled by publicly embarrassing employees in front of others, while rude and disrespectful coworkers face absolutely no consequences. Favoritism is blatant, support is nonexistent, and the company makes it painfully clear that customers and agents matter more than the people doing the actual work. It’s a toxic, draining environment where employee concerns are ignored and nothing ever changes.

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. Building a culture where everyone is shown respect is critical; what you’ve shared is not the type of organization we’re working to build. We encourage you to please share your concerns with your manager, your People Center Business Partner, or directly with me so we can address these issues. My door is always open. Michael Veilleux

Pros

None anymore they’ve taken away any pros

Cons

This company used to be amazing to work and it has just gone downhill since returning back to the office after Covid. It seems that the CEO only cares about people being physically in the office and not about their own lives and what works for them. We are having our two days working from home, stripped from us. Leaving us at a minimum just Fridays. They claim to be flexible for family life balance but leaving early used to be a perk to get kids off the bus, to their daycare etc etc .. and to finish your day from home as long as you were in the office for more than four hours. That’s no longer the case as of January 1 would be in the office four days a week at a minimum like I stated earlier and now we are expected to be in the office completely eight hours no ifs ands or buts. Work home balance is so crucial in today’s world especially when they don’t pay enough to afford daycare. I left my job and came to National Life several years ago for it just to be completely changed and then to be selfish and not care about their employees. If you’re looking for a job, that is a family balance stay far away until they get their heads out of their behinds because us who are here now with kids have seen nothing but a decline in caring for us. Mehran only cares about the looks of the company not his employees happiness only the agents which are lacking in common sense. He doesn’t have to worry about affording childcare making 6 figures. Us scraping together Pennie’s however do.

We appreciate your feedback. Since the Covid crisis is behind us, we believe in the energy, collaboration and camaraderie that exists when people are together in person. We also recognize that this schedule might not work for everyone. We encourage you to meet with your manager, your People Center Business Partner, or me about your concerns. – Michael Veilleux
