Pros

There is definitely a feeling of belonging to something great. The benefits are good and you get a lot of training. They will contribute to college tuition and will pay for continuing education courses. USE THOSE BENEFITS

Cons

You will be highly trained, underpaid, and receive almost daily emails about various managers’ promotions to AVP, then AVP to VP and RVP, SVP and EVP until your head spins. Meanwhile you’ve hit your (low) ceiling really quick and no matter what you do, you’ll end up rotting in a desk until you decide to quit.

Pros

Flexibility with a hybrid work schedule. Ability to learn more products, so it can be challenging but fun if you are looking for growth. Metrics and everyone knows what to expect which seems to be industry standard across small business.

Cons

None. PTO comparative seems light as you start out.

Pros

Nice people, focus on technology, upper management is usually ahead of insurance trends, immediate supervisors were nice and well meaning. Benefits are good, not great. Good amount of PTO.

Cons

In small business unit, you have monthly quotas and managers are constantly asking how much you are quoting and if you will reach that number. Various levels of punishment if you don’t hit this number. Quality of work, risk selection, accuracy doesn’t really matter, only how much you quote. There is no positive in hitting this number beyond not being bothered until the next month. If you exceed this number consistently, you’ll just be asked to do more. Company is doing everything in its power to save expenses. The pay rate is well below the market. People consistently leave and make much more money elsewhere. Most lower level jobs are being shipped to an Indian company and even the Indian company is having job functions replaced by AI. This is usually at the expense of quality or what our agents actually want. CEOs preach saving expenses and not replacing people, as they show up to your office after flying in a private jet and a car service. Finally, 90% of the people in the region I worked were related to somebody who either works there, were their friends, or were related to agents we did business with. Some of these people had positions made for them, where they sat there and studied for 6 months, instead of promoting people from within. This will also prevent job mobility.
