Pros

I really don't know that there are any...I guess the office building comes stocked with free coffee and on Fridays there are doughnuts and bagels

Cons

-Full time job with no base salary -No sick days, vacations days, etc. -Mandatory un-paid meetings/"training sessions" every week that are repetitive and condescending in nature -No opportunity for growth -Little to no transparency about where the company is headed -No health insurance or any benefits at all -Zero assistance or training in obtaining your license. You would think the mandatory hour and half long training sessions once a week would be a good place to do this, but instead they focus on the power of positive thinking to achieve your goals -You are expected to make at least 1,500 calls a week -Extremely sexist and misogynistic work environment. Very inappropriate comments are made by both your co-workers and upper management, so there is a "boy's club" culture with no recourse in which to express any grievances -Little guarantee that any of your deals will close -The job description you applied for is likely not the one you will be doing. Therefore, no honesty about what your actual position entails

Please see our most current job posting that will address 90% of your grievances. We are completely transparent with what we do and what the position entails. There is no base salary and it is a 100% commission based position. Our consultants are independent contractors and therefore in charge of their own time and schedule. There are no mandatory hours. All meetings and trainings are 100% optional. Since Consultants are independent they are responsible for their own health insurance benefits. Our senior consultants help train and mentor new consultants in the business based on their prior experience and results. We have Zero tolerance for any Sexist remarks and inappropriate comments. Any Consultants whether it be past or present found violating this have and will not be involved with United AMG. We are an equal opportunity employer and promote safety within our company. Unfortunately we have never heard of any business that guarantees that you will close business. We do have strategies that save clients on average 15%-20% of their health insurance premiums and the back end support and account management team that makes sure that they get the service and support that they deserve and that is why clients move forward with our firm. In 2017, out of 15,000 brokers we were rated the number 1 agency in the state of California for new business with the largest general agency in the country.

Pros

I've been working here for over a year and the Mentorship program is backed up by proven track record of success that the Senior Partners have achieved in the corporate insurance industry. There is no cap on income potential for those that are willing to pursue their financial dreams. I really enjoy helping companies cut the costs on their insurance policies and on top of that AMG gives agents the latest marketing technology for B2B business marketing. I've worked before for another firm and their marketing tools were like from 20 years ago... I;m focused on building a successful career and there is nothing better to be mentored and coached by people who have already walked the path that i am going through ...

Cons

the first 6 months could be tough if you are not clear on the business model and career path... The money starts coming after about 6 to 8 months assuming you are committed from day one ... There is really no Cons if you want to become a business person... i was committed and worked hard to get a fast start since everything i needed was already given and explained to me...
