Pros

Work from home, equipment is supplied, fun people to work with, the trainers seem like really nice people

Cons

The training is too short for new agents. If you don't hit goal the first 2 months they fire you. No seriously they let you go, it's very gladiator style. The lead pool depends on your rank. Level 1, and 2 have higher quality leads. Level 3, and aip leads are terrible. Selectquote doesn't cater to your style as an agent, they expect you to fit a mold even if it's not in your skillset. The pay went from 18 an hour then to 15 and a day before training they dropped it to 13.50 with the promise the commission would make up for it. the commission doesn't make up for it because they constantly change the commission structure and QA dings you for everything. I've constantly lost over 250 bucks per check because I didn't get an email for someone who's a senior who doesn't have an email. I was excited to start at selectquote but I'm currently planning my exit. The leads are bad if you're a lower agent who doesn't have the same experience as other agents and turn over is high. Also the work to home life ratio is bad. They expect you to work 11 hours during the weekday and additional weekend hours just to hit goal. No lie I can't work that much as a family guy. If you can handle this type of nonstop hustle go for it but im a human and I need time with my family. I'd suggest you steer clear of selectquote and find more honest company to work with
