Pros

Was the retirement and the company used to proud that it was hiring Texans/Americans.

Cons

Company hired offshore headhunters that worked for Dell when they did the same thing and destroyed Dell to the point they had to sell the business unit to NTAA Data. They have started to send jobs to India and the call center will be going there as well, no matter how much lipstick you put on that pig. The proof is in the history of those they've hired in the C Suite.

Pros

First year is usually good due to incentive to Agency Director to put PREMIUMS in the agents name but the 1 year mark it flips on you!!

Cons

Once you hit one year you are RYA (Returning year Agent) all incentives are gone and you are left to fend for yourself!!! The first year is to create false hopes of financial stability and motivate you to close as many cases before you have to quit! Keep in mind once you quit all the cases you have closed the Company keeps and you have nothing but charge backs and debt!! They hire an army to close mass cases and just let you fall off and suffer!! This company is a joke and probably the worst insurance company around to work for!!!

Pros

You learn about what you don’t want.

Cons

They will cheat you at every turn with terrible leads, abuse of 1099 status, commissions, abusive management tactics, a union you’re required to pay dues to that a total fraud, and bait and switch tactics. No benefits. You won’t make enough to pay your food and housing much less afford the life insurance products you sell for yourself or your family. Culture is male dominated and there’s blatant favoritism, lies, and gaslighting propaganda employed. No work life balance.
