Pros

Dont plan on staying here. Comp sucks big time compared to 1099 agent 70%less. Fake team work with foolish group chat. Deceptive ads to generate leads and you get to flip them. You can forget about getting a full release for 6 months after you leave. If you do start here keep your own records of your clients they will lock ypu out of access to them as they own what you write. 0 renewals!!!

Cons

Commisions blow. There is paid "training" and a base pay but that is so you feel safer with commision.

Pros

People are nice, tons of training and tons of resources, remote position was nice, benefits were actually shockingly good compared to other companies I've worked for. Trainers actually know what they're doing, managers actually know what they're doing.

Cons

THE PAY!!!! THE PAY IS SO BAD!!!! You cannot go into this company expecting to make $100k+ a year without doing a ridiculous amount of overtime. From my experience the company seemingly does false advertising and tells people they can get food cards, but then most medicare plans don't even offer food cards unless they have medicaid, and 9 times out of 10 clients don't want to change their plans anyways to get the food card. You're supposed to be a sales agent but it feels more like a receptionist position. They cap how many leads you can take per day, and even someone calling in on accident and meaning to call somewhere else will count towards your lead count for the day. If you don't mind working with angry old people and getting crap pay for the workload you have to do, then this isn't a bad fit. But if you want to be true sales agent and make a ton of money, this isn't your company.
