Pros

Some nice people to work with.

Cons

Joined Manulife 5 months after having my first baby, and there was an expectation to work late evenings on calls to collegues in other countries. Very poor work life balance and no support for new mothers.

Pros

Great benefits and nice communication across different teams. Access to perks of a large company (HR support, benefits, PTO). Very established firm in the marketplace.

Cons

Slightly below market salaries and little room to negotiate upward, unless you change job titles. Some managers and execs can be set in their ways or choose the de-risked option, even if there are better or more efficient ways of doing things.
