Pros

Long standing company with great track record in the market. Lots of opportunities to make money if you are ambitious and motivated.

Cons

Lots of work is required to make it in this business. There has been somewhat of a revolving door of management in the last year or so.

Pros

During my time at LFG, you always felt the customer was put first. The primary market was high net worth customers that wanted a holistic approach to balancing their future risks. The organization was challenging in its time of change (mergers, shedding dept, economic downturns) - but as an employee, it served to challenge your own assumptions about the insurance business. Lastly, the work-life balance is truth, not fiction. The Lincoln Foundation is woven throughout the workplace. Community service is supported during and off work hours.

Cons

A current con to working at LFG would be the commodity driven approach adopted. It is a completely different mindset to working with customers and operations.

Pros

Company placed a lot of resources to support the program. You built networks throughout the company and gain a good understanding of how the overall company functions as one unit.

Cons

The value of the program is best realized if you stay with the firm following your three years. If you leave....good luck.
