Pros

Work life balance is good. You can pretty much make your own schedule. That's all I can say about the pros.

Cons

This company is horrible. Soon I'm sure they will be investigated for violation of fiduciary rules. They force you to sell their products to everyone regardless of suitability. If you don't then they won't pay you at all. You have to pay them to work for them. They hold back commissions based on some bogus excuse and then act like you are inconveniencing them. They only care about whole life insurance. Pay outs suck and they only want you to sell tier one products which consist of one produce. Stay far away from this company. They are crooks.

Pros

Great programs for experience in fortune 100.

Cons

Cared more about building a program to attract interns than future employees.

Pros

• Decent benefits • Some good individual contributors and colleagues.

Cons

• Extremely high workload — regularly expected to work 60-80+ hours per week • Constant scope changes with unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines • Upper management was disconnected and showed little concern for employee well-being • Highly political environment where internal politics often outweighed actual performance • Mass layoffs that eliminated roughly half the engineering team, followed by offshoring many roles to India — even after many of us had dedicated 4+ years to the company • Extremely stressful and unsustainable culture leading to widespread burnout
