Pros

An Abundance of low-quality internet leads. You’ll get basic insurance and sales experience. If you’ve never sold before, it can teach you the fundamentals quickly because you’re thrown into it. That’s about it.

Cons

The management style is hyper-micromanaged and driven by fear and intimidation, not leadership. You’re constantly monitored, pressured, and second-guessed. There’s little trust and very little real coaching—just pressure to produce. It’s the kind of environment that burns people out fast. The pay structure is not as good as it sounds upfront. The commission is low, and you don’t make real money unless you’re producing at a high level—around $50,000 in premium per month. The reality is only about 20% of the team actually hits that consistently, so most people are working under heavy pressure without seeing meaningful income. Base pay doesn’t justify the expectations. You’re expected to perform like a top producer while being paid like an entry-level employee. Training is minimal, yet expectations are high from day one. You’re expected to figure things out quickly while being closely watched and criticized if you don’t perform. And like all captive agencies, you’re building someone else’s book—not your own—so there’s no real long-term upside.

Pros

Work from home, make your own hours, fun claim types, starts off with great PTO allotment and you have access to all your hours from the moment you start with an extra week after five years

Cons

Good luck with your diaries if you use the PTO. You will come back with overdue items. The way they have their PTO backup system setup is two backup people for the whole department. There is too much work for them so they don't get to much while you are out. Usually voicemails. You can' schedule anything for while you are gone, all your claims have to wait for you to return. The amount of new claims a week has drastically increased and it isn't sustainable. They do expect you to work more than your 40 hours or recommend that you find a different job that isn't a salary position, PTO calendars are always red with blackout dates. Supervisors and the manager don't listen to actionable items presented to make the department better. The attrition is bad, but they continue to tell us we are fully staffed because our diaries aren't that bad yet. Adjusters are dropping like flies but won't hire anymore. Not sure if that comes from senior leadership or direct leadership. Ever since Jeff Dailey left, we are just numbers. No one cares about us anymore and it is evident.
