Unorganized & doesn’t care about their employees

Agent licensing specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Clerical work & you don’t have to talk on the phones all day long.

Cons

The training is not structured well & does not set you up for success. Supervisors are all over the place and they don’t conduct one on one meeting to see how you’re progressing. I worked they for little less than a year and only can remember my supervisor meeting with me 2 times. Not to mention they are unrealistically STRICT about attendance, but fail to provide with an attendance policy for you to abide by. It’s doesn’t matter how well you do your job or what unfortunate even t happens in your life. They don’t care they will fire you for being 2 minutes tardy. There is no grace period for your attendance and if you come in early to prevent from being late/tardy you will not get paid for it not will it cancel out for the times you weren’t able to clock on time. They treat you like a robot not employee, better yet a human.

Great training! Difficult to generate income

Life insurance agent

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great training materials and a lot of available resources online to learn. They also have weekly sales training meetings as well. Overall, I learned a lot on how to operate and build my book of business. Some leads provided.

Cons

Lengthly presentations that would take approx. 30-2hrs to complete. Misleading ways to pull in potential leads by promising free packages. Very difficult to start off successfully without an existing list of customers ready to buy. Insurance products are a lot more expensive than other agencies.
