Not the Best

Public relations specialist

Pros

It's great money and benefits. My manager was amazing. Meeting lots of new people is awesome!

Cons

They're currently in the news for some pretty shady stuff. Granted, I worked on the public relations side and not the agency side. I was told "people are important but business is the most important." Definitely not my style.

Worst job I ever had

Insurance agent

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I have genuinely nothing good to say about this place.

Cons

Commission only. Like just barely not a scam. You have to pay for the exam, the license, the month(s) of feeding yourself until you actually make a sale. Calling people who only signed up for a child safety kit to sell them life insurance and upsell policies. Not to mentioned that often the sales you make will, months later, be repoed out of your account if the customer doesn’t pay or cancels. My wallet & self esteem have never been lower than working at this god forsaken, unhealthy, toxic grind culture.
