Pros

Working with all sorts of relationship managers across the country. Low Stress Level.

Cons

It has been very difficult to advance in the company and it seems like the people who are most tenured are overlooked for younger and lower paid people when it comes to raises and rewards.

Pros

High energy place to work. Never a dull moment.

Cons

Couldn't trust people you work with. Lack of training made me nervous as these people are supposed to be helping people.

Pros

Company sells various types of insurance without promoting one type of coverage over another.

Cons

Fixation on numbers and selling certain core products. Trying to change the way they calculate commissions and keep delaying process every 4 months. Outdated software jams system and is unreliable. When the going gets tough, the integrity goes out the window and the yelling starts. Have to review archaic reports every morning "at home when you sit down with your coffee" and spend two hours a week with manager in a meeting reviewing these confusing and pointless reports, with near-retirement managers who don't even fully understand them, let alone how to use a computer. I think I'll stop here - the nightmares are coming back and giving me a headache.
