Pros

Good benefits Nice that they assist with RIBO licensing Pay not great, but acceptable for starting out Some good coworkers to laugh with

Cons

As others have stated - intense micromanagement. So much so that you won't be able to effectively do your job because expectations are constantly changing on a weekly basis. Auditing - this really couldn't get any worse. Some auditors do things one way, others do things in another way, and you get blamed. This takes you off the phone to fix, and then you get blamed because you didn't sell enough that day. It is virtually impossible to get solid deals done under these conditions. Technology - as another post stated, everything is patched together, and you have no idea if things will work for your next sale. Unfortunately this only adds to the uncertainty of you actually being able to take the deal closed on the phone and get the backend processing completed. Politics - expected at a big bureaucracy like this - but the odds are against you. Upper management knows about the drama, and does nothing to attempt to fix it. Training - mediocre. It wasn't the best not the worst. Unfortunately some of what trainers teach you has no relevance to reality or is just factually untrue, making your learning curve that much steeper. To management's credit, they do attempt to fix some of the issues, but the company is so big and bloated. The underlying roots, like the ones mentioned, are not able to be properly addressed in any meaningful way. This is a company where you start, not where you stay.

Pros

Good place to start off. Whether you want to dabble in insurance or use this as a stepping stone, they do have a thorough training program. Depending on the people you work with, they really make this job tolerable as well.

Cons

There’s is too many places to start, I may need chat gpt to help me keep this clear and concise. 1) work life balance would not exist if it were up to this company. They would work you 24/7 if they could get away with it (they will shamelessly use corporate lingo to insinuate this regardless lol) 2) career growth here is something they like to dangle in front of you. It’s almost like they use your career aspirations as ammunition to get what they want from you. Their best interest comes before yours. And you better believe the goal post will always be moving 3) I never really was exposed to what it feels like to be treated as just a number until I worked here 4) the amount of changes they will stuff down your throat and expect it to have no impact on your overall performance while adjusting is truly mind boggling 5) you will not be paid fairly. So maximize the training and experience, and leverage it to go elsewhere to really get paid what you deserve

Pros

Benefits are good, people and coworkers are friendly.

Cons

Management is out of touch, untrained, your work load increases and no compensation given. They have removed all the receptionists from small town offices and are moving to a call center model. They have way too many operating systems and works flows are convoluted and are not meant to help your workload but rather their analytics for tracking work and sales. The salary brackets are low compared to other large companies and bonuses and raises are minimal. Not a lot of growth opportunities. They have an employee survey each year and they advise the employees to only put good answers and high scores, as it reflects for management bonuses and overall company scores, its very skewed.
