Pros

Commission rates are decent. Benefits are decent, if you sell enough to qualify for them. Their accident-only insurance product (Accident Protector) is very good for how much it costs. The company is in the process of changing some of their more frustrating policies and starting to come into the modern era on their business processes and practices.

Cons

Their life core insurance product (Family Life Protector) is not particularly good. Lots of cold-calling businesses and sometimes residential areas. If you aren't particularly good at selling their products you will make very little money since it's a commission-only job at the sales agent level. You will be expected to go out and see current customers on a regular basis, sometimes as often as every three months. Many of these customers have seen an agent pretty recently and will not be thrilled to see you. You will probably be expected to work six days a week and long hours (>10 hours a day) depending on who your Territory Manager and Market Director are. You may have to spend an inordinately large amount of money on gas since the geographic area your sales office services will probably be very large. Expect to drive a few hundred miles every week

Pros

Great training, it's nice when the company has a lot of money invested in you. After the initial two week "sales camp" you are also continually trained and groomed for advancement as you go.

Cons

"Assembly line" style of training, while it is efficient, it doesn't cater to the individual at all. But when you are training so many new agents a week, it would be unrealistic to expect them to cater to each individual.

Pros

Some of the pros are having the leads provided. Strict discipline on setting daily appointments.

Cons

Being micro managed gets to be redundant.
