Pros

Remote, They provide equipment. Unlimited Overtime you choose your own schedule They pay for you to become licensed

Cons

During the 2 days of training, managers just read directly from a powerpoint and offer no real help/ advice. They make it seem like it'll be very easy to overcome objections and transfer calls, because we're only calling warm leads. But is it really a warm lead, if the person only put their information down to win points on some mobile game. Or is it a warm lead when an elderly person thinks they'll be getting government funded benefits, so they put in their information only to be harassed and scammed, and pay overpriced insurance on their fixed incomes. If leads were actually warm, then maybe they wouldn't have to deceive people in the job posting. I applied for a sales position, not for telemarketing. . If you make it past the "training" you're then told to get licensed by your state, which they do help with, but if you're anything like me, they'll fire you, for not hitting KPIs one week before you're supposed to take the exam just so that they don't have to pay for it. This company is a scam, if you're desperate for cash, take the position, but don't quit your job search.

Pros

The company really does a great job of taking care of employees benefits wise. The people you work with are awesome and helpful. Pay is eh, but it works.

Cons

The dialer that they work with is absolute crap. You say so to management and it falls on deaf ears. They say, “just make this change to your approach.” You are graded by your ability to transfer, but it’s a farm. The leads are ok sometimes but you will be calling people who have been called 10 times already. All under the guise of it being from Fidelity Life.

Pros

Work from home...only problem is you will never be able to look up from your computer all while getting verbally abused by prospects

Cons

They lie to you from the beginning talking about the account executive position. Don't work here. You will most likely not get the account executive position because those spots are filled. The system that you are calling with does not have an option to call back later. So let me paint a picture...You call a prospect and the wife says sorry "im IN THE HOSPITAL TAKING CARE OF MY SICK HUSBAND...can you call me after 5pm?" Cut to 10 minutes later and they receive another call from most likely you the BDR, because the system doesn't have an option to call back later. At which point you will get verbally abused on the phone..rightfully so....shes in the hospital taking care of her sick husband. All for $15 an hour. And oh by the way this happens over 300 times a day. They sell over priced life insurance to broke people. Not to mention the leads are so broke that you will have to PAY BACK your commission if they dont pay for their policy. Dont work here. Managers are trash and don't care about you. In n Out burger starts at $22. This is $15 and you get verbally abused and taken advantage of all day. Have a good day everyone. :)
