      Pros

      Location is awesome. Great for working parents. Nice 401k. Awesome community outreach program and matching gift donations to non-profit. Convenient on site cafeteria... not the best tasting food, but convenient.

      Cons

      No management accountability. Very high school. Your advancement is dependent on popularity and not skills or abilities. Management prefers looks over technical skills. YES, LOOKS! I have personally been a victim of sexual harassment by a manager and he is still here...being inappropriate. HR is a joke. A bunch of hens acting like they are here for you and take your concerns very seriously. All the while, they are reporting everything back to the manager and together start building a case against you. Company supposedly has a strict "no retaliation" policy. But from personal experience that is not the case. You are an instant target once you knock on their "open door". Come review time, everyone is asked to comment on you and you are never asked to comment on others or management.

      Pros

      What I'm most grateful for is my team and the culture. Pacific Life is full of supportive, knowledgeable, encouraging, and just genuinely great people. I feel challenged, appreciated, and lucky to be a part of this culture.

      Cons

      In-person requirement of four days a week is not consistent. There is lots of flexibility with that, though.

      Pros

      Great benefits and great team members!

      Cons

      The Return to Office policy is driving away one of our talented team members. Blindsided by reorgs. No polls done to determine what is best for our team.
