      Very Conservative Company

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good Pay Work Life Balance Free Food but no cafeteria except few wending machines Its a retirement company Don't come if you are coming from service industry like Accenture, Cognizant, Capgemini etc- you will get nothing to learn.

      Cons

      OK so Sunlife ASCI is captive unit so very much cost sensitive. eg. yearly parties without drinks ASCI Leadership is not competent except few handful leaders Associate Director & Director level person in ASCI is not any better than a Manager level resource of companies like TCS, Accenture, Cognizant, Capgemini etc and even inferior than Associate and Senior Associates of Deloitte, Mckinsey and PwC etc. IT infrastructure wise - they are from stone age. Onshore team is conservative in nature and hesitant to adopt latest changes. 90% project are on waterfall and leadership knows only name of Agile nothing else about it. Nothing to learn if you are from coming Accenture, Cognizant, Capgemini kind of service industry because your exp is way too much for ASCI to handle and you can easily sustain with 10-15% of your past experience. You can simply plan your retirement from here.
