Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookDisapproves of CEOI have been working at Manulife full-time for more than 10 years
Pros
Amazing co-workers, work from home capabilities, socially aware culture.
Cons
Lack of forward thinking strategy outside of capitalizing on Asia growth, which will eventually plateau. Stock price continues to remain flat, as it has for most of the 2010's. Senior leadership within the technology stack is grossly dysfunctional and has destroyed employee morale. Many talented employees have left, those who remain are doing so to collect annual bonuses and wait out possible severance packages.

RecommendsNegative OutlookDisapproves of CEOI worked at Manulife full-time for more than a year
Pros
Open floor plans Updated work space & tech Diversity committee on point Company events
Cons
Team/projects will end and that means layoffs Luckily I was able to see the writing on the wall and leave prior to this stuff. However I did watch contractors and consultants get shown the door with no heads up. Simply because they weren't social enough, or because Manulife was simply done with them. This place can be very much incredible if you know the right people, but that is just not the case majority of the time. Specific demographic is put on the fast track to career growth, while others work extremely hard and are respected and loved by peers. Just not promoted or even offered to interview for a bigger role. Toxic environment can cause very tense issues in groups.
