Pros

They used to pay well.

Cons

This company started with the heart = Dollar model and has change to look more like a corporate greed company. The company has a system that tiers the buckets for leads. That would be ok if you knew how to work hard and move up right? No People like KG who have been there since it has started hook the buddies up and nepotistic-ally select who is in the tiers. Brand and Andrew have been out of touch for years and are the co founders. They continue to be lied to from management and has no idea the hostility that is across the floor. The Job keeps adding more and more tasks and the commission able leads that help you make the $ are going away. Over the last 6 months they have generated two inbound teams that basically with cream the leads and take anyone who is calling directly in. This leaves you with leads that are barely above cold calling criteria. The company is not longer an innovator in the industry and many of the managers who could have had a great positive influence for change have tried and left. The company is being outsold by its competition. Much of the competition are from affiliates that Freedom taught they Debt relief system to. Folks you are selling a very difficult product that nobody reals wants. When you have the pay cuts and lead manipulation its is a miserable job. Sure if you are new hire you may do well for about 6 months. But that is to suck you in and keep you in your seat for real ride. I will be leaving this joint as soon as I can grounded outside of this COVID issue. The Culture is Hostile.

Pros

- The people are generally very kind and collaborative broadly. - I believe the company is genuine in its mission to only earn profits by helping everyday Americans move forward on the path to a better financial future. - The company at large and some of its leaders aren't afraid to try things and then pivot if they don't work to try something else, instead of doubling down over pride or ego or stubbornness.

Cons

- There's a lack of clear and strategic leadership that leaves job ambiguity, which places the employee at a disadvantage with performance measurement, which is how they award quarterly bonuses. Without clear SMART goals, it becomes a game of bring me a rock, but not that rock. - Towards the end, they were implementing a start-up entrepreneurial mindset style that was leaning away from valuing work/life balance and getting more demanding and desperate in attempts to meet metrics.
