Pros

If you have never sold insurance it is a good place to start becuase you don't know the quality of the products yet or competition. And they will train you on thier products.

Cons

3 weeks of micromanagment training. They don't give the comp plan until the last day of training. You have a quota then they threaten you if you don't make it you are out. Upon starting you are in the lowest tier out of 12 tiers. You are capped at 6 leads a day to try to work up. 20% conversation rate. Hard to work up with the qualify of the leads. You will be selling to Medicare and SS# cleints with little money that can't afford it. You are selling on emotion vs facts. Life insurance in the beginning. They they take another 6 weeks to train you on Medicare. You are only getting 11.5 hour for basically 3 months out of the year. Top tier is capped at 50 leads a day. Hours are determined for you. My lunch was from 2-3. You are going to be working more than 8-9 day waiting and watching a ticket to catch a lead. Micromanaged. Everyone leaves the LHA dept as soon as they can to do something else. You will be talking about clients death wishes everyday.

Not a place to work

Pros

Get to work from home

Cons

Company has a more, more more mentality. Never satisfied. LONG days (as in 11-12 hours) and management pushes you to not take breaks and skip your lunch. Constant monitoring. Shotty training. Ask questions and get ridiculed in front of your peers. (so i never ask questions) No time to pick up my kids from school.

Pros

Free food and people are generally nice.

Cons

Pretty much everything recruiters tell you is a lie. Was told there were unlimited leads which was a lie. Was also told that I would get a falloff bonus for each plan that stuck and that was a lie I just learned. If you dont make their quotas the company keeps everything that you did sell.
