Pros

AFLAC has a great compensation program as well as incentive contests, recruiting bonuses and build your own hours! Feel great making a difference in people's lives!

Cons

You have to build your own book of business. Cold calling is required, period. This means, from day 7, you're on the street knocking on doors, calling on business owners and your circle of influence build your personal book of business. It takes time to get to making sales, but when you sell, you're paid in a timely fashion, someone's within 3 days!

Pros

Depending on the department you're in, there is flexibility in your work schedule. They are always feeding you in appreciation for your accomplishments. Employee Appreciation Week is awesome and we are always getting free gifts (ducks, T-shirts, etc). Career progression opportunities are available.

Cons

There is a lot of nepotism in the company. Several members of the leadership team are inexperienced and unprofessional causing a lack of trust in upper management. Constant organizational restructuring while working towards bettering business outlook makes it hard to maintain the required level of service for our customers.

Pros

Fantastic suite of affordable policies to sell.

Cons

The business model for sales focuses on "activity" which dictates that new reps visit 20+ businesses each day to approach owners/decision makers about adding Aflac to their benefits package for their employees. This is not necessarily bad, until it is factored in that there are an unknown number of reps in the field each day doing the same thing from offices all over the state. There is no system for tracking/protecting any areas, and most businesses in smaller towns have been visited 10+ times by other reps over a short (3 month) period.
