Incompetent management is JUST the beginning.
Pros
The pay is excellent. I started at well above minimum wage. The benefits are great. They offer good bonuses and incentives, unless you are part of the conservation team.
Cons
They make promises to get you to change projects and then do not follow through. The health insurance is extremely expensive, over $700 per month for a family of 5. Anything and everything that you do will be labeled "work avoidance." When you are subject to disciplinary action, you are prevented from changing schedules or changing departments. However, if you ask how long this period will be, they will tell you that they do not know and that they are not required to give a time frame. Training is very brash, incomplete and inconsistent. You are then expected to meet criteria on error percentages in the first 90 days of your employment, otherwise you are fired. Management is completely incompetent. They rarely promote management from within the policy service department. When they do promote managers, they promote an past employee that has been rehired for 6 months and hire retail store managers rather than promoting from within. The policy service department has a high turnover rate of managers because good managers are pushed out and mindless managers are brought in so that Torchmark can control (and mess up) everything. They do not research the legality of their practices before they implement them.
