Pluspunten
- Extremely smart colleagues - People are polite and kind and you might even make a few good friends - Good perks and benefits - Great office location (downtown Toronto) - Lots of fun socials (pre-pandemic)
Minpunten
- It's a reinsurance company so they focus on growing actuarial talent. If you are joining any of the supporting teams like HR, marketing, accounting, etc. then you will be treated as an inferior part of the company structure. - There is no opportunity to grow in the supporting teams - Company promotes feedback culture to escape accountability for bad management. Continuous conversation program is flawed because it ignores the unequal power structure between manager and team members. Managers are given too much power because continuous culture is so ambiguous. And there is no room for providing feedback upwards. -The small supporting teams operate extremely lean and have a cut throat attitude when it comes to performance -Does not care if employees are overwhelmed or stressed. Will offload projects with unrealistic deadlines. Taking time off is often looked down upon. -During the pandemic employees did not receive bonus but shareholders did receive dividend -HR provides little to no support -Lots of bureaucracy since it's a multinational
