Pros

- the people (coworkers) are great - the chance to move to different areas/department is available and encouraged. - the flex work options (work from home etc) is fantastic

Cons

- pay compared to other companies for the same work is lower - morale can be low (mostly due to workload) - promotion within department is very hard to get - management is concerned with blame and 'who did it' when an issue occurs (it seems more than resolving the issue) - management tries to overwork everyone (literally told by management in a meeting that more projects and work was going to be given to us but they weren't concerned with hiring more people; we were just supposed to "do better with our time" and this is the typical attitude on resources

Pros

Schedule is 10 on 4 off which is better than most carriers CAT pay (commission) is just fair and not difficult to acquire so you can rely on it consistently. Very helpful and patient work environment.

Cons

Can be a lot of work just have to make sure to stay on top of it so it doesn’t build up I would say the hours can range from 6-12 a day

Pros

I work for a local agent, so he is more lenient on things. You get to connect with the community.

Cons

The pay is not great. Unless you are licensed and can make commission
