- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
-Some really wonderful people work for this company -They will support you through your licensing process -A great introduction to the insurance industry -RRSP and DPSP
Cons
-They won't provide references if you apply for other jobs so plan to be here for a short time or the rest of your career -Fort St. John and affiliated branches - management had the maturity of a high-school clique. Gossip is rampant and anything personal you share with one manager will promptly be shared with the management team and used against you -They claim to be about career progression and diversity but progress is based on how well you fit into the clique - not necessarily skill. If you aren't a straight, white, oil patch wife be prepared to be excluded -Competitive sales environment means sometimes selling products that customers don't actually need -No training for products aside from ICBC -My manager consciously tried to take advantage of employees by claiming we are not eligible for overtime even after working a full shift over 40 hours - would not acknowledge her mistake when I showed her this was against BC employment standards

Could do more for developing all employees using coaching, not just through performance management from the direct manager
