Combined Insurance is a decent place to work

Pros

Some of the good things about Combined are: Pay about average, benefits pretty good, leadership very focused on growing the company.

Cons

Some of the challenges are that they are looking for a lot of company growth, but are not very concerned about employees growth/path. Like a lot of companies during this job downturn they wish to make sure they get there money's worth, but are not worried about talent leaving for greener pastures.

So Very Disappointed...UGH!

Pros

The training is not the good part...everyone says so, but that's just the fact that they fly you to Chicago and put you in a hotel for 6 days with TDY paid. But the actual training sucked, as I was to discover later on. They do give you all of your materials, including business cards. It's a W2 not 1099, so if you don't want to mess with taxes at all (even if the other job is better), then go for it.

Cons

One of their biggest catch phrases is to "give them a year...we'll give you a career." Well, I can't give them any more of my time or I'd have to hand over my REAR on a silver platter. HONESTLY, if you can sell ice to Eskimos, you will do great. But if being a REAL agent/producer and helping people is what you like to do, then DO NOT work here. Everything will look great at first. You will be so excited to get out there and sell.You get a stipend for the first 3 weeks, then its all commission. Your "lead books" are just orphaned clients that don't even remember that they had a Combined policy, and when you remind them, they want to cancel...NOT upsell! It's all cold calling, which is (thankfully) aimed at small businesses. But with this age of OBAMACARE, people are wanting NECESSARY products, not OPTIONAL ones. I had so many problems with this company it seems unreal...but it was. For your sake and mine, I'll stop here. I was so happy to start my career here, but all I got was a huge letdown.
