Pros

Very good training program; two-weeks in length, paid, out-of-town.

Cons

In spite of what I was told when hired, the bulk of my job consisted of going door-to-door to 15-20 small businesses a day, making cold calls in an attempt to obtain business. Store owners usually very irritated that we disrupted their business to try and sell life/health insurance. Plus it's all commission work.

Thank you for this review. It’s true that sales is not for everyone, but this is a great opportunity for those who have the drive, attitude, and skills necessary for success. Our agents have a virtually unlimited income potential based on the volume of their sales. We suggested to our successful, happy agents that they share their experience on this site so that potential employees could get a well-rounded view of what it’s like to work at Combined Insurance and what it takes to succeed. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors! Less
