Good place to work

Working at Sun Life offers a compelling opportunity for professional growth, backed by a rich legacy of financial expertise and a vibrant work culture fostering innovation and collaboration.

Average company overall

Pay and benefits were decent. Fellow colleagues complained of challenges advancing within the company. Performance review was solely based on your manager's assessment of your work. Co. actually removed documented feedback mechanism available for employees regarding their own assessment. Poor management of compliance department.

Points positifs

Hybrid work

Points négatifs

Stressful, work overload.

Lots of flexibility, good hours and good team to work with. You are supported well in the workplace. Heavy workload though with strict and tight turn around time.

Worst exprience

I started working in this company in this company in January 2023 as Business Consultant and HR of the Company lied to me that my Position comes under National Occupation Code as the IRCC Guidance and when I asked them to provide me the letter of experience they informed No this job is CSR role.Even the Management is so stressful and no work ethics.Its my High suggestion never apply in Sunlife Financial they mislead the innocent employees for their gain.

It's not a matter of what you know but WHO you know

Started off well but once was familiar with management and how things were run, you knew it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows.Pay was alright but like a lot of bigger corporate companies - work politics exist.

Productive with good opportunities to learn a lot of technologies

What is the best part of working at the company?Teams are amazing. Good opportunity to learn and upgrade your skills while participating in different projects. What is the most stressful part about working at the company?Frankly speaking, there is little stress when your manager is very details oriented. When you look at it correctly, it is a good way for your improvement. 1- pay is little below market norms. What is the work environment and culture like at the company?Friendly teams members. Work/life balance. Good paid off-time

Ok Place

Great if you're kick starting your career. Not the best long term. They OWN all your clients, and use a system called NAFYC to determine your comp. They will not tell you how to calculate your comp, instead they say "wait for the system to calculate it"

Balancing trade offs in working here. Curious and hopeful to move outside my business to have a better employment experience my business

What is the best part of working at the company?Employee Wellness: Work/life flexibility, mental health supports.What is the most stressful part about working at the company?Leadership levels/quality in some parts of business.What is the work environment and culture like at the company?It’s the bank culture in many experiences, forward thinking and digital experience are attractive.What is a typical day like for you at the company?Times of high collaboration and times of lots of independent work as an individual contributor. You design your day based on client needs. Working in the office is ultimately left to the individual. Staying connected in chat with team members.

Deceiving

They recruit based on a fantasy that you will have no set schedule and make really good money. You are self-employed. This is a commission based Job and the payment structure is so complex that managers can not explain it. If you do not hit targets you owe them! You are required to buy their equipment, complete courses (out of pocket) and provide them with a list of your 100 contacts. Before you officially start work you must have a minimum of x amount of active flies, that equals the dollar commission amount needed and completed all your licensing. It is not explained before signing on with them. If you are interviewing as all the questions. Since you're self- employed you are able to make up your own schedule, that is the only bonus.

Really good place and environment and a wonderful employer to work for.

What is the best part of working at the company?The way Sun Life treats their employees. There are wellness programs and wellness days. There are opportunities to grow within the company and there is lots of flexibility around remote, hybrid work. What is the most stressful part about working at the company?Some people managers are not people persons. That can get stressful if you happen to fall under such a manager. Out of almost a dozen managers I had one was not a people person and that was stressful. What is the work environment and culture like at the company?Really good team members and you get good support from the team. Friendly people. What is a typical day like for you at the company?Before the pandemic it was like parking the car and getting into the building to a lot of friendly greetings from fellow sun lifers and security/ reception folks. Getting to the desk and settling down - checking the meetings for the day and going to get tea and breakfast from cafeteria to more friendly faces and greetings. The café staff are hands down the best employees ever. Then go on with the day until lunch doing work, collaborating with team members and working on my own. Then getting a healthy lunch from café- more friendly faces and greetings and back to work. When the weather is good I used to walk to uptown Waterloo to pick up a lunch that I can eat at my desk. Then continue work. At the end of the day if we wanted we could go to the gym in the building. We get a discounted membership.

Decent place to work

Decent place to work. Low salary. Benefits are ok. Lots of opportunities to move into another role or department. They do have a bonus plan and great food selection.

Terrible organization

Terrible compensation structure. The firm ensures that they can make money off their advisors out the gate. You pay for ansolutely everything out of pocket. 0 salary and all compensation is based off commissions. Pressure you to sell to friends and family, which no matter how you position it, is extremely akward and uncomfortable to do. If you dont feel this way, you're likely a bit naive. If you completely sell your soul and squawk their squawk you may do well. Otherwise go elsewhere, you'll likely accumulate more debt than anything trying to float by with this organization, and they'll gladly bill you on your way out if they can find a way to with no remorse.

Points positifs

Can't think of any

Points négatifs

Pushy, cult-like, poor comp model

Layoffs

Management did not have clear goals for company and changed direction every 6 weeks - Top Heavy - Too many decision makers. Old boys club and favoritism. Good product but not well executed.
