Pros

Reasonable Pay, Good Benefits, Smart People, and Fair Work/Life Balance.

Cons

Competent leaders but poor leadership, awful communication, some really bad apples that poison the place, lack of teamwork because of the politics and CYA, inability to make decisions and stick by them, and finally archaic technology.

Pros

Better-than-average benefits. Dental is the best around. Vision is also a terrific plus.

Cons

If you want to re-visit high school and its cliquiness, apply to SunLife. This is a highly political environment so advancement has nothing to do with skills, performance, or ability. Information is closely held even between co-workers. There is a tremendous atmosphere of CYA and sabotage. Departments do not work well together. Every trick in the book is used to withhold fair compensation.
