Pluspunten

Good work/life balance. You could shoot a cannon through the place at lunch hour or after 4:30.

Minpunten

You will never advance unless someone at the top likes you or you are really good at speaking without ever offering an opinion or asking a question.

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. Creating an environment that promotes a strong work/life balance is important to us, and I’m glad to hear this was a positive part of your experience at Economical. We have ambitious goals, and we understand there will be some challenges along the way. We’ve set out to be the first Canadian P&C insurer to successfully demutualize, and we’re also actively pursuing new technologies to benefit customers, brokers, and employees. By sharing our strategy and progress with all employees electronically and in person at annual symposiums, we’ve been taking positive steps towards ensuring our employees have a clear view to how they support the strategy with the work they do every day. We’re sorry to hear you felt there were limited opportunities for advancement in your career at Economical. We regularly assess and enhance our learning and development programs to support employees in their career, including paid career development opportunities, online leadership training, and a virtual library with thousands of books, videos, and courses available to all employees. We also welcome feedback (like yours) to challenge us to push the envelope even further and facilitate advancement opportunities. In 2016, for example, 21% of employees were either promoted or transferred to new positions.

Pluspunten

Here's something fun: Petline hasn't launched yet but they've already made me a better pet-parent. Now certainly, "become a better pet-parent" wasn't one of my goals when I accepted the role, but I've been surprised a few times by my personal growth since I joined the team. On career goals I'll say this: to the credit of the management team at Petline, they've recognized talents and areas I where I thrive before I did. I've been given opportunities that I didn't expect and for which I am deeply grateful. Back to pet-parenting, Petline is a startup and every person at this company is heavily committed to our mission and goals. Just working alongside like-minded folks has made me consider who I am as a pet-parent. I know my pets better than I did before and I know they are happier for it. Petline won't always be a startup, but I'm confident that as we move forward it will be with integrity and the intention to foster an environment where individual strengths are recognized, and weaknesses are supported.

Minpunten

Petline is a startup and anyone familiar with the concept should know that it takes hard work, a lot of brainpower, and constant flexibility. It can be hard to accept and frustrating when business decisions seem to flow and change like water, but it's rewarding. It might not be for right for everyone, but when it's right, it's right.
