Pros

Average pay and benefits were okay.

Cons

Freeze on raise and bonus for years. No recognition for hard work. Lots of finger pointing - blaming. No life and all work.

Pros

The company offers fairly decent compensation for a hourly pay but the real reason your hired to work there is generate a solid commission through sales. If your not a die hard sales person this is not the position or company for you but if you are management sees fit to offer daily incentives to motivate the sales floor. Management does try to offer activities to keep the sales floor engaged.

Cons

Personal time off is a negative as a new hire you get 5 days for the year. Any other day you take off is unpaid. Take everything that management tells you at face value. They tend to have the habbit of running before walking meaning they may over hire for particular programs with great expectations that are not fully developed yet. You must be able to adapt to change because you are more than likely going to be rotated to another department with two months of employment.

Pros

Management is the best I've ever experienced and I'm over 30 years in the business world and 47 years young. This is a true Sales organization with excellent, in-your-face, disciplined, moment by moment training and accountability. Every call to prospects and clients is recorded and monitored which is EXCELLENT if you are honest and LOVE things done correctly. Base pay is great, starting at $15 an hour (even during several weeks of training), and goes to $17 an hour in 60 days if you stay and I've not seen any asked to leave in the first 60 days. Also, leads are all provided with full FTC compliance. Full benefits offered after 60 days is an excellent and unusual thing for a licensed insurance agent to find these days!

Cons

If you have some bad habits in selling from the past and you resist change, you will struggle and may not make it. If you don't like to confront prospects when they say "no" initially, you will struggle or fail BUT management is more than willing to work with you if you are teachable so this con and change to a pro if you eat humble pie. Also, at times, leads are not as good as you might hope but your mindset will determine your outcome as you persevere, notwithstanding.
