Cons

-Lower commissions - lower than industry standard -As a manager, I was not told I would be paying 1% for leads plus 1% for office supplies -Had no training on how to be a trainer/manager, had to figure it out -Sales training could have been a bit better -Amazing office culture, actually really enjoy going into the office because of my fellow agents -Long hours in the first few years, working nights and weekends -Commission only, unstable income but the longer you are there and the more you build up your renewals, that becomes almost like a salary. This does take years to really build up though

Pros

Bankers provides award winning training, an elaborate product portfolio and a rapidly growing market. They leverage cutting edge technology: contact and LEAD management, electronic business submission, an incredible proprietary mobile application. I have 11 companies I can be appointed with - making sure my clients get the best program for what they NEED. A great opportunity to receive great training, work with great people and make a great living, all for helping people.

Cons

This opportunity is just that, an opportunity. Those who don't take advantage of it won't think it is a good one. Even successful people deal with a ton of rejection, thick skin is needed. With a 40% closing ratio, I still hear "No" more than "Yes".
