Bankers Life reviews

Very long hours, you are to be in the office 2 days a week at 8:00am till sometimes 7pm or later and they ask you to come in on Saturdays al least 3 times a month.. Cold calling, the leads that you pay for are recycled leads and most of them say they diddent request any information. Managers have signs on there doors that say, if your not booked not to bother them and on the doors tghere are signs saying, see your manager before you leave if your not booked. They tell you just get in the door, you will find a need, sale. They favor managers and top producers with quality leads,they get them first. When I saw how bad the leads were and the fact that you are paying for your leads, I asked if I could purchase leads from a lead company and I was told they would termenate my contract if I did. I thoughjt I was 1099 employee, self employed and I could not invest my own money to my buisness. Once you make your sna, you are on your own. They hire anyone somtimes 10 new agents a month. Your expected to knock on peoples doors to get buisness, but most of the time they tell you off or dont answer the door. When you do get a appointment %50 of the time you get porched, so they tell you to double book even more so if you think there is no money there. Basiclly your saying anything to get in the door. Just get in the door, call the people who are home is wehat your told to do. Oh, andf have at least 1 years salery saved up your going to need it. Because there is so much compition and so many agent and most of all horrible leads, I'm sorry I wasted 9 months with no money, no support.

1. You need to have at least 3 or 4 months worth of money to live off of while you are getting started. 2. Be prepared to work 70 hours a week for your first month and not make a dime. 3. They take the first $100 and office fees from your first commission payment if you are lucky to get one. 4. Most of the employees are cut throat.
