Pros

I work in a small but busy branch. The staff are friendly enough, the locations okay and cheaper contracts are pretty good.

Cons

Lack of teaching after a certain point. I did a lot of insurance claims with little to no teaching, ending up making a mistake which could cost the boss their bonus. I made a mistake and of course expected my share of the blame, but was told almost instantly this could cost me my job. Insurance sales seems aggressive and unfriendly. Yes geek squad offers some great features BUT it is NOT the best out there. I can't match their unnatural expectations. I feel a constant pressure to manipulate people. People want insurance, they will get get insurance. The rota is ridiculous. I am on a fairly short term contract which ends up 38+ changing all the time. I can't remember the last time I got to go to a social event.
