Cons
Horrible scam company who is lying to the elderly about getting free food cards. Most clients that they transfer to advisors don't even know why they're on the phone and usually just end up hanging up ( alot of the times it's during when the qualifier is handing them over to us) or get frustrated because they were promised a free grocery card on a tv commercial. The company is doing a lot of false advertising which is just wasting everyones time at the ending of the day. But guess what?? It falls on the advisor and affects our metrics. Some days I get 4 calls, other days I get 10 calls and still no sale. There's a ton of micromanaging and coaching as well. Managers sit on the sales floor and listen to your calls live and tend to message you on slack if they hear you doing something wrong or start questioning you on why you didn't close the deal. Trainer kept shouting this is a corporate environment but yet they run the company like a frat house. It gives "sales bro", hood, hype, larping, culture and not professional. A lot of AI powerpoints and rap/ hype music. If I wanted that, I could've stayed on the broker side. Another thing is the script is way too long winded and most people don't have time to sit and listen to us try to "connect with them" and " hit their pain points". The I-app is also very buggy and not set up correctly. Most people don't want to give out their social so early in the application process ( which is required to approve them) so they just end up hanging up the phone or a lot of the clients say they don't agree with the disclosure that is read to them. I also think the qualifier needs to let them know that a bank account with their account number is needed to submit an application. Qualifiers only ask what bank they're with when prescreening calls. I'm able to get most clients to the very end, but when it comes to asking for their account number, they say they don't have it or we have to hop on a 3 way call with the bank ( which is tacky and unprofessional and most banks refuse to. All in all, do not waste your time. It's a scam company deceiving millions of elderly people who already don't have enough money to spare. Oh, the VP of sales is also trash. He's super cocky and sometimes flat out rude and I guess he thinks shouting out "JUICE" makes him cool or educated when clearly he's not. I only took this job because I was desperate at the time and needed to move but now i'm off to bigger and better things. Oh and the trainer resigned during our training LOL.. On our last day of training, he told us it was his last day. Yikes. Anyways, stay away from this trash company if you care about your life insurance license because they've already been sued numerous times and you don't want to go down with them.
