Pros

Big company name that can lead to future opportunities

Cons

Brookfield faces numerous challenges. The most significant issue is the company's ultra-conservative stance, a sentiment even echoed by HR leaders. If you are a minority seeking a promotion, you may likely be overlooked in favor of a white colleague. HR, which should lead by example, falls short in this regard. Our team suffers from ineffective leadership and rampant favoritism, with promotions often going to friends of leaders rather than deserving employees. The company culture appears to be a facade, with limited growth opportunities and unclear career progression paths. Additionally, employees often feel siloed, hindering collaboration and innovation. Compensation is both low and inconsistent across similar roles. Furthermore, several rounds of reductions in force (RIFs) over the past year have made it difficult to envision a stable future here.

Pros

Benefits are good and the 401k is 100% vested at the start.

Cons

My experience as a former employee felt like a bait-and-switch. The role was presented one way during the hiring process, but after starting, the expectations and responsibilities changed significantly. Initially, the position aligned with what had been discussed. However, additional responsibilities were later added that felt outside the original scope of the role. When concerns were raised about workload, staffing issues, and long-term growth, the situation was not meaningfully corrected. The workload became difficult to sustain, including extended hours and time worked outside of normal business days. It was especially concerning to later be told that the expanded responsibilities had supposedly been the plan all along, even though that was not clearly communicated during the interview or offer process. I would strongly recommend that anyone considering employment here get all important details in writing before accepting, including responsibilities, reporting structure, workload expectations, compensation, and whether the role may change after hire.
