Pros

The company offers a great deal of flexible free time, and there are fun production-based rewards, like opportunities to attend outings and lunches being brought to the office based on productivity.

Cons

I was not informed during the hiring process that cold calling and door knocking would be primary sales methods. The office culture lacks fairness, with management showing favoritism toward certain individuals. There are frequent issues with lead quality, and viable leads are unfairly distributed, favoring top producers. The commission structure is highly unbalanced, making it very difficult to earn a stable income. Delays in the underwriting process have led to cancelled policies and lost clients. There is no clear marketing support, making it difficult to establish brand trust. The training materials and website are outdated and do not provide effective support for sales.
