Kin Insurance reviews about "work from home"

Once a year there are merit based raises which I understand, but even employees who go above and beyond consistently meeting and often exceed required numbers/emboding the company culture etc still meet expectations and then get a merit based raise of 2-4% which is barely cost of living raises. While most every other company I've seen and worked for previously provided a once a year cost of living raise usually 3-5% on top of merit based raises which at minimum were 5%

They are a start up and growing too quickly, so leadership is struggling with catching up. As a licensed insurance agent, you will be on inbound calls back to back, its a typical call center and when they say "no outbound calling" that's not true. They have employees who make the outbound calls, then they transfer to you and deem them "inbound calls". Expect to be tied to the phone and yelled at for 8 hours. The pay was not as promised, expect to make 65k with base and commission, not 6 figures as promised.

Worst experience in a training environment I’ve ever had. Unprofessional trainers and management using scare tactics don’t make for a very positive environment. Made me doubt my decision to move over to this company from day one and never got much better from there. Constant fear of losing one’s job and underwriting makes it impossible to write business. Having years of successful sales experience in various industries- very disappointed. Toxic, immature management.

Pay, management, lack of recognition.

Monthly goals are a bit lofty

Can't really think of anything

We are a mature startup now. We still move pretty fast, but we aren't a young, scrappy startup anymore. As we grow, it gets easier to be silo'd. Management seems to be focusing on this, which is good, but still a place where we could get better.

Startup, always changing procedures/commission etc.

Despite promoting a culture of transparency, this company operates in a manner that contradicts that principle. Leadership, including HR, fosters a toxic work environment where trust is scarce. Employees who dedicate significant effort often find their contributions undervalued and deemed insufficient. Decision-making appears inconsistent, with leadership lacking clear direction. Additionally, individuals are placed in roles for which they may not be suited. Rather than valuing employees as individuals, the company treats them as mere numbers. While initial impressions from recruiters may be positive, new hires quickly realize there is little guidance, and compensation and benefits fall short of expectations.
