USI Insurance Services reviews

This insurance broker puts its profit margins ahead of its clients and employees. Top management are New Yorkers and call all of the shots. This company was owned by Goldman Sachs, who sold it to another private equity group, and was marketed to them as a hidden "pig in the poke". Local management across the country will do whatever is necessary to grow the bottom line. Prospective clients and employees should think ten times before going with this second class broker. And local management has rejected helping United Way and other similar non-profits unless they can write insurance on those non-profits. THE USI MOTTO: What can USI get and the heck with helping others.

The book size they expect Account Managers to service is almost double the industry average because the only thing USI looks at is the bottom line. They don't take in to account the complexity or "neediness" of each client. If you can't work fast and work late frequently, it's tough to get all your work done. Also, the Sales Reps are allowed by management to make ridiculous/unattainable promises to clients instead of sticking to established procedures. There are a number of Sales Reps in the Irvine office who are incredibly difficult to work with; micromanagers, poor communication skills, condescending (you're my personal secretary). There is no formal training program, so you should already know what you're doing, or you will struggle.
