Pros

Provides friendly work environment and excellent benefits. Benefits include 401k match + 4% free and Free health insurance (including vision&dental), life insurance etc.. Good work life balance for most people but that really depends on who your boss is.

Cons

The culture (Being super friendly, being political correct, can not show negative emotions) makes it hard to have people accountable for their mistakes. However this creates friendly work environment so I did not mind. This does not seem to be the case for in leadership positions though as plenty of them have been parted ways during my time at the company. Vesting period is also long for 401k company match (Takes 5 years to be fully vested.)

Pros

What I'm most grateful for is my team and the culture. Pacific Life is full of supportive, knowledgeable, encouraging, and just genuinely great people. I feel challenged, appreciated, and lucky to be a part of this culture.

Cons

In-person requirement of four days a week is not consistent. There is lots of flexibility with that, though.

Pros

Great benefits and great team members!

Cons

The Return to Office policy is driving away one of our talented team members. Blindsided by reorgs. No polls done to determine what is best for our team.
