High Expectations Low compensation, Heavy workload. They hire in large groups due to the high turnover rate. They hire entry level students/recent graduates with no experience and pay them low and expect them to work a desk that is backlogged, super busy, and is NO where entry level work.
Depending on which job, before you are able to work they make you take a 3 day insurance classroom course so you are licensed (in which I was not even aware about as they did not mention any additional courses or test on the job description and interview) They do provide extensive training for the role you were hired. During the 8 weeks of training a lot of people in my group I was hired on board with slowly quit one by one. Now it makes sense as to why they need to provide that much training because they hire people with absolutely NO experience which is fine, I understand everyone deserves a chance to start somewhere but don't put entry level employees in a desk where they can't handle it just so you can pay them cheap! That's why I believe there is a heavy turn over rate!
If you want to get your foot in the insurance world then Mercury would be for you to gain experience but if you have insurance experience like I do, do NOT come here. They host job fairs for the same jobs every month because the turn over is out of control.
