Flexibility and Work-Life Balance

Pros

I've worked for Intact for over a decade. Is it heading in the right direction, becoming more flexible with its employees and allowing for a greater work-life balance. The level of collaboration depends on the team; however, in general, people are happy to work together to achieve desired goals. It is also exciting to be one of the leading insurance companies in Canada and being part of their (or our) success story.

Cons

The salary range is wide and you can fall on the bottom of the scale for no apparent reason, other than being loyal to the company and not shopping yourself around. If you bring it up as a concern, you get a canned response about the "total package" but that is BS. Whether you are on the low end of the scale of the high end of the scale, you still get benefits, and yet the scale still exists for a reason. It is almost akin to gas-lighting.

Thank you for your review and thank you for your contribution for over the last 10 years. We really appreciate all that you do! You’ve outlined some positive aspects of working at Intact as well as your opinion on the response to your questions on compensation. Compensation is a complex subject to respond to via GD as there are so many factors that go into someone’s current salary. We want you to feel like your getting the straight goods on this topic so please reach out to your HR Consultant or Manager who can give you more insight.

Pros

One of the best places to work for several reasons. You are well taken care of. Management is elite! Co-workers are usually actuaries or PhD Computer Scientists. They are down to earth and will help you whenever you need technical advice. This is a really good place to start your career.

Cons

No cons. The food at the cafeteria is really bad sometimes.

Pros

Good salary and benefits . Nice working space. Flexibility.

Cons

Very slow pace. Impossible to take any decisions as they always need everybody to agree to everything before making a move. This makes it very difficult to innovate.

Thank you for your review and your kind words about our offices and flexibility. Our employees also enjoy our flex working arrangements. You're right, our culture is built on collaboration and sometimes it takes time to make the right decisions. But good point on being bold and making faster decisions, we are all trying to balance the right approach.
