Pros

flexibility, great work life balance.

Cons

the culture of BGRS has changed over the past few years, making employees feel less valuable and less significance is made on the employees. not many opportunities to grow if you're not in the list of "favorites" . training programs, conferences and other opportunities are limited to the favorites. which makes most of the talented hard working employees to get demotivated and leave. Not a very good benefits structure too. Lowest salary scales in the market, and the increments just crawl in with great reluctance.

Pros

flexible working hours, good people to work with. New CEO (former Cartus) seem to have a lot of Good ideas looks promising.

Cons

There is a lot of Fluff, performance is questionable and there is no scope for growth , Brookfield acquired in prudential in 2011/2012 , they were making losses in the brink of bankruptcy, and they were extremely overstaffed; ever since the acquisition of prudential, the number of former hard working Brookfield employees were either let go or left the company, almost immediately the management got infested with former prudential staff which made a lot of committed legacy Brookfield employees to leave the organization, leaving a large number of people from Prudential taking over jobs done by half the staff, diluting the job scope to nothing, which made most of the remaining employees to leave. Very poor top down communication, many things take place very secretively. attitudes are negative, there is a lot of politics favouritisms and cut throat attitudes within, no one seem to be committed or respectful, low employee moral. the senior management (except for IT and corporate) hardly has a Brookfield presence. makes you wonder who acquired who. Prior to acquisition, Brookfield made profits for years, the acquisition made the company loose many clients (some clients openly stating that they have no intention of working with prudential) , for 3 consecutive years, budgets have not been met. Brookfield WAS a very good company with high employee morale , team spirit with scope for growth, But not anymore. if one is looking to grow, to learn or have a responsible job that you can be proud of, I doubt if this is the place. it will give you impressive titles, but the job scope is next to nothing.
