Pros

The benefit package and vacation time meet or exceed industry standards. The company is very family oriented allowing for time off as needed for loved ones. Coworkers are like family and they sponsor activities outside of work to support those relationships.

Cons

Limited upward mobility. Most of the middle management has been promoted within due to time of service rather than leadership abilities. As this is an older company, the attitude is often is "We've always done it that way."

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.
