Pros

Nice coworkers Uncapped commission Bonus offer if you hit company wide goals

Cons

Most managers do not like to train new hires Hard to work with sales coordinator/ hard to get advice/ help even though they take personal calls all day You are a commission employee which with the proper training would not be so bad however that’s no the case here you are on your own( corporate does provide a sales school however that is not with your office manager just corporate managers and not enough support to help you when you are making cold calls/ giving presentations Management can be very harsh on you for not hitting your goal Must have sales experience to be successful here or know a lot do business owners/ know how to network Schedule despite what they say are not flexible they want you to be working 24/7 There really isn’t team bonding opportunity while there are great coworkers to meet you aren’t really given a chance to meet with them unless you can make it to the Christmas party they do or once every couple of years the sales coordinator will run a competition and the top sales representatives can all get together. I would not describe this as a diverse work culture I would not describe this as a positive work culture There are not too many opportunities to move up to become a manager unless someone leaves the manager position which is very unlikely as they in their 30’s and not ready to retire or move to another company. Sometimes they open headquarter position but you have to be with the company for awhile as in 3+ years and possibly have to relocate

Pros

Freedom to be your own boss, trips, bonuses, renewable income (instead of one time commission), career instead of just a job. FORTUNE 500 and a World's most Ethical Company. Great training (at least here in Wyoming) and a family mentality. Great family/work balance.

Cons

No base pay, can be a slow start at first, you have to be very organized and self-driven, have to be licensed in life and health to sell insurance (but my management help with the process).
