      Pros

      Huge support in developing professionally through education, challenging work assignments and courses.

      Cons

      There are similar challenges to most organizations as large as Sun Life... difficult to meet everyone's needs.

      Was a great place to work until the life insurance division went down the tubes

      Pros

      Excellent benefits, competitive pay, is accessible via public transportation, and offered (the past tense being emphasized) opportunities to grow and build a career. The people with whom I worked were some of the most hardworking, friendly, and cooperative co-workers that I've ever met. Overall the environment used to be positive and geared toward productivity.

      Cons

      Due to a constant shifting of upper level management over the past four years and those individuals' business decisions, the overall mood of the company changed from "we're a team" to "it's every man for himself." Another frustrating thing is that, for many positions, once you're employed there is a freeze in terms of moving to other jobs or department, sometimes lasting two years. The regulation is understandable, but stifling all the same.
