Pros

-great opportunity to learn about insurance, sales and corporate America -lots of opportunity to grow financially and professionally -opportunity to travel depending on role -work from home option -full benefits package (vision is the best! two pairs of glasses per year) -awesome, family like culture

Cons

-very patriarchal (meaning men are usually in leadership roles and "in charge" as producers and regional sales managers) -nepotism openly accepted and encouraged meaning people who have no skills, talents, or intellect are hired with competitive salaries just because they're related to someone in the company -takes a long time to receive a raise-must work very hard to receive a raise, and even then it may be meager -a lot of conflicting information given -systems can be cumbersome to navigate -high turn over in client service segment -somewhat incompetent practice leaders/subject matter experts

Pros

If you are confident you can produce new business you might find a nice home here, but probably not any better than literally any other company.

Cons

Poor compensation, poor benefits, and VERY little career opportunities on the service side. They do an awful job at career coaching and there is a ridiculous amount of nepotism. Do not work here.

Pros

The People are fun and profession and everyone seems nice. The location is perfect located in the south central part of town. 401K 5% match program and HSA, FSA accounts.

Cons

Building is not large enough to handle the massive growth, we are constantly running out of filtered water & ice. Benefits are the worst !! Extremely high deductibles and premiums with large out of pockets that don't cover anything until your $10k deductibles are meant for a family. I don't see any room for advancement based on what I've heard so far.
