Combined Insurance reviews

They say they promote on merit ; well not in this region---- (NC,SC, VA) /EAST zone been with Combined over 3 years and have more awards and other accomplishments but that doesn't matter, you will only make a promotion based on if you are in the circle, in the group, that "clicks" !!!! Manager says been here for over 20 yrs now but at previous meeting was 14 yrs , 16 yrs and 17 yrs but trying to understand how that 6 years has past in the last 3 years since i've been here. Once you past your 4 weeks of training , if u get that much, you are on your own ; i've learned everything i know by researching , asking, reading and studying the material and key associations/contacts over the years . They say , one quote they use, you are in business for yourself but not by yourself ; that is far from the truth . Giving, actually, "earning" advertising dollars doesn't qualify validating this or using the quote above. Very micro managing type of environment which is fairly recent occurrence over last 18 to 24 month not like it used to be but just wait things only change Giving an accurate post here; they want you to also recruit to bring in new agents but most don't last over 9 mns.

Management, across the board is a con. They are not there to build up their teams instead, employees are scapegoats that are overworked and under appreciated and under paid. Recruitment is a joke, if you are licensed and have a pulse you're hired. After training, agents are often left to their own devices and struggle to launch in the field without any backing from corporate. Ask any recruiter about retention of agents, it is abysmal. Unfortunately, a once phenomenal and trustworthy brand that cared about it's every employee, has become stunted and unable to adapt and advance to suit a new generation of employees and customers.
