Pros

Not much actually… nothing just works right.

Cons

Canada Life, sister company of Empower, They hired a Director from Different state thinking that person will make amazing changes to the company, instead of changing culture, he started targeting the local people and mentally harassing them to make them quit, then he started hiring people from his state and his previous company to fill up the positions and create his own territory to rule. When you reach out to the person in regards to any office issue, first he needs to feel the lady who went with the issue, second thing scan the lady from top to bottom without any regards to people watching. Misusing his position for personal gains, probably company should investigate a little more on what exactly is happening. Parents trust you guys and send their daughters to work during the night. Great West Global one day you will be responsible for some poor lady’s life. It’s the TRUTH People like him are the reason why there is hate war between North Indians and South Indians.

Pros

I like working here, I find the work life balance with this role to be ideal, and remote opportunities are regularly available at the company ever since the pandemic. Unlimited PTO and I don't have feel guilty to use it, team structure really helps when people are out of the office. Receive good salary for my part of the country, with yearly raises and bonus based on merit.

Cons

I don't have many cons, I would say it would depend on your manager, as is the case with most positions in this world. I've had amazing managers with my time here and some mediocre managers, but overall the job has been good enough to weather the storm of a bad boss.

Pros

Many smart people genuinely want to grow & succeed; An excellent long term strategic vision backed by long term oriented investors; Ample growth opportunities at a business that is very well positioned for long term growth. Leaders that genuinely care about their people. Remote work is truly an advantage - just the lack of a commute makes a large difference. Opportunity to be at the ground level of a company that will develop a much stronger national brand over the next decade.

Cons

Delivery & Execution are areas that are truly challenging in the high growth/evolutionary environment that Empower is in today. Cultural changes are happening within the business that create some competing priorities, though Sr. Leaders continue to lead through this. Working with people across the US means don't expect a normal schedule - early / late starts and working lunches are the norm.
