      Pros

      Great bunch of people. Friendly atmosphere. Worked there prior to 2012 when they invited figure skaters to visit. Would work in Disability Dept again if I moved back to Edmonton.

      Cons

      At the time, reno's began so work space was some what tight. Not much else that I recall to comment on really.

      Pros

      Very good and stable company. Great support from our head office when requesting information to help a case along.

      Cons

      Strictly based on a commission structure. Very hard to understand that pay schedule and is incredibly difficult to climb it. If you do not have a stable base to start off with in terms of family and friends you can sell insurance to, it can prove to be very challenging.
