Canada Life Employee Review

Not great

Montréal, QC (Former Employee) - Montréal, QC - 8 September 2023

Very draining environnement, goals are not realistic. Good benefits offered but not worth the mental struggle. Would not recommend as an employer. The lack of flexibility to balance work and life id difficult

Pros

Benefits

Cons

No flexibility or work life balance

Thank you for your feedback. When our employees feel that their work-life is out of balance, we encourage them to speak directly with their leader about workload and expectations.

It was once..

Individual Qc (Former Employee) - Montreal, QC - 23 January 2023

I've worked for nearly 15 years for this company and it was no lo ger worth it! Old experienced employees are waiting for their pension-litterally , no place for growth - only if you are a new hire and do not cost anything to the company : no need experience or knowledge for any of the higher ranking job: it's only a question of fit!! Lol!! Unfortunatelly the level of incompetence in all departments is dangerously increasing, since the knowledged employees are being scooped up by competitors. The workload is enormous- OT is never open so you end up doing free overtime since you get all the complaints and harassement from advisors and clients!!

Pros

None

Cons

Underpaid-stress-bad coworking-no real good benefits (you pay for them)

Great team, but unrealistic expectations. Always busy. Low retention rate. Good group benefits: medical, dental, Wellness plan. Located downtown Montreal.
