Pros

The workload is pretty steady as this organization is in a very "needed" sector. If you like to stay busy, you can easily, and they do pay you for your time. Full time employees receive a very fair UNH benefit package, and overtime is a must if you want to bank the money. With the cultures turn over the way it is, they will pay you to do more for a while before they replace any position. But you will get tired.

Cons

This organization fosters a very aggressive Sales culture as opposed to a service culture which would coincide with their marketing. There is a lot of finger pointing, ego`s, and insecurities at every level of the company. No one cares about the workload you are required to do, until your finished with the task that they assigned priority to, then wonder in amazement that you are not 2 people and could not finish both at the same time. Then your on the "list", and you better sell something even if your not in"sales", if you want to keep your job, or at list get off the list for a day. Hiring and firing do to lack of training is the name of the game.

Pros

If you have the gift of gab/sales, a positive attitude and actively keep your behavior acceptable upbeat charismatic in a social setting and are a generally confident person especially with new unknown people all the time this job is for you. The upper management are all incredible people, wonderful teachers, are very friendly and will do everything in there power to make you succeed in your job role. This company starts you off with a higher pay than most and will keep giving opportunity for advancement as long as you prove your ability to get the job done right the first time and keep a strong steady pace. They like to promote from within and let people flourish. Acquiring this job was the best thing that has happened to me . This company is honest, quality, and only gives and deals with the best. Every day I learn something new and am looking forward to a long future with this company.

Cons

Dealing with people saying no. But this is with any sales job. And like any sales job having winning behaviors and keeping your identity and your job role separate and at a ten on a 1-10 scale. You will be absolutely fine. This job is a breeze it's fun and it's fulfilling at the end of the day you feel like you did good for the world around you . Which is a great feeling

Pros

Friendly people and a pretty laid-back environment. If you focus on your job and are accountable you won't have any issues. Benefits are decent and they offer yearly raises.

Cons

A fair amount of petty office drama and micro-managing. Also not too much room for advancement both inside the branch or into the divisional or national offices. Lack of understanding between the corporate office and branch needs.
