Pros
Training - you'll get good training on auto/home, life, LTC, disability products (all Country products) If you can make it here 2 years you know you can make it on your own as an independent agent.
Cons
- training only on Country products - limited commercial access and training - low commissions and no contingency bonuses at year end for profitability - no renewals until you are "career" agent - they assign accounts from former agents to new hires so they never pay the new hires any commission on them (most new hires are gone within a year) - even as a career agent they can terminate your contract for any reason they want under the guise of "you're not providing financial security" to your clients. So if you build up a large book and want to relax and collect renewals, think again! At Country you are building THEIR business, not YOURS.
