Pros

Some very nice people work there and I do believe the training was above and beyond others in the industry. Ted Steinmeyer the Denver office manager is one of the best managers I have ever been able to work under.

Cons

I think many of the numbers we were told about lead volumes and compensation were greatly exaggerated and the amount of people they were supposed to be keeping after aep was greatly exaggerated. I think they somewhat sold a bill of goods when describing the financial opportunity for aep which they said the AVERAGE agent made 35000 in 7 weeks which was far more than was realistic when all was said and done.

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your complimentary remarks about Ted, our staff and training. We always strive to be transparent and upfront in our recruiting and hiring practices. What we communicate is the target compensation in a given period which is different from the average. We also communicate the historical percentage of retention into permanent roles after AEP completion. Last year, the percentage was well north of the historical number. Thanks again and we wish you the best in all your endeavors.

Pros

Great training for any sales position - our trainers know what they are talking about and they do a great way of communicating it to a class full of people. Our brand new building is amazing and I love the modern vibe that we have in the office. The standing desks for the core agents are amazing too - hoping to make my way up there! They bring us in food constantly and they make sure that we are happy while we are at work. We have a game area, a break lounge (with plenty of microwaves) espresso/coffee machines and a gym. I'm excited for outside to get done so we can enjoy that space as well.

Cons

That you aren't guaranteed a position when you start. If you have to prove yourself to allow yourself to be on the sales team but there are many other opportunities if it doesn't work out . Also, for being an insurance agency our health insurance is expensive and not that great. Wish there was something a little better- besides that no complaint

Pros

A very intense and comprehensive training program. They are determined to make sure you succeed. Half of that is on the individual though. You have to put in your own work as well. Something of not I have met with and talked to the CEO who comes around often and makes sure everyone is having a good time and enjoys the environment. Lot's of fun and crazy antics everywhere.

Cons

They feed you all the time... The con is I have no impulse control and will likely gain more weight ;)
