Western Financial Group Reviews

Pros

Vacation, Career Advancement, Benefit Packages, Inclusion of everyone

Cons

Caring too much for Clients, take things personally when we cant help them

Pros

It’s a job not a career, a few if they other employees who work there are great. You will be able to gain experience to move to a company that values their employees

Cons

The company is so top heavy with management, it takes forever for decisions to be made, and not always experienced in insurance so they are not helpful to employees. They keep buying new office instead of worrying about making what they have now better through education training and technology which all three a virtually non existent and management just says we are working on it for the last 2 years. You are expected to live up to your end of the employment deal and they will promise you the world, but unfortunately they never live up to what they say . there is no conflict resolution so if you have a problem with a co worker you suck it up and don’t complain or you will get written up, I could go on about my experience. If you want value, respect integrity this is not the place to work! I have worked at 2 other brokerage is my career and this one is by far the worst....there moto for the year... we got swag, just cause you say it doesn’t mean its true!

Pros

My peers were great and made it a nice place to work.

Cons

I worked there for several years and during that time there were a lot of changes that they kept saying would lead to better pay and better benefits, but that never happened. The better benefits only applied to a narrow demographic. Changes to the bonus structure were never implemented, then the bonus structure was changed again and again never implemented. In my opinion this led to low morale as long tenured and successful employees weren't being recognized.

Pros

Good benefits, lack of structure and management so poor performers can poorly perform.

Cons

Terrible Management. Discrimination and abuse towards women from Senior Executives. Favoritism is so apparent for a few specific employees which makes for a very disengaging and toxic office environment. The fat has to be cut from the top or they will continue to lose all their good, experienced staff. 95% of their sales staff have already left due to poor management decisions and inexperienced managers in their positions that chose to micro manage as they don’t know what else to do. Everyone is miserable there and it seems like Western is tied up in multiple lawsuits with the staff members that chose to leave for better opportunities.

Pros

Benefits, time off, community involvement

Cons

Salary and workload. Working evenings and weekends

Pros

Good pay and benefits and generous time off allowances

Cons

Expectations on employees are not realistic
