Pros

great benefits; heath, HSA, 401K pension work autonomously, not micro-managed VERY family friendly, great work/life balance ability to telecommute or work in an office (depending on location) true outside sales that includes the flexibility that comes with it

Cons

Terrible communication to the field Very little support from upper management Ramped comp plan makes it difficult to continue the same level of income the longer you are with the company 100% draw keeps you a slave to the company - they will come after you if you leave with a deficit. DId I mention....NO support from upper management or the home office, you are on your own! Agents are treated like a commodity, this is not a sales focused organization

Pros

Good benefits, hybrid work arrangement is flexible (you can choose your 3 days in office)

Cons

Tenure and friendship is valued more than actual skillsets. Many people in Ops have no formal college education or true technical skills, and have been complacent in the dept for 10+ years. This leads to inefficient and stale processes that are reluctant to change. The culture is extremely passive aggressive and long-tenured employees are not welcoming to new hires from outside of the organization. People will go out of their way to sabotage opportunities for those offering new perspectives with greater value add. This causes forced interactions with low value collaboration. Many in analytical roles do not even understand basic Microsoft Office skills, Excel functions, V/XLOOKUPS, etc. and data is often reviewed manually per line item… This company is run like a low budget mom and pop shop where inefficient and backwards practices are toxically in circulation.
