Pros

I’ve been a self employed independent contractor for Combined Insurance Company for over 27 years and am currently a sales leader. An excellent company to represent and yes you are self employed which means you don’t do at least 6-10 or more sakes talks a day you will not survive! Learn the basic principles and set a short and long term goals for yourself you will succeed . Can you make $100,000 or more in your first year! Absolutely yes if ONLY you dedicate your time to this career

Cons

Long hours, depending where you live you could do a lot of driving, evening work, and as it’s commission sales you will struggle if you don’t know the product material

Pros

Met beautiful people ( clients...not the fake one's in the office )

Cons

Too many to list. Only a desperate company would "encourage" all agents to write positive reviews on Glassdoor. Before taking any step to join this joke of a company, please ask for written documentation on the turnover rate for agents. You'll never get it because that will expose this company for what it is, a merry-go-round of agents. Management could care less about you because they will have another shipment of hopeful unemployed people going to Chicago EVERY week to drink the cool aid and learn about being positive.

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We do our best to identify new agents who we think will have success at Combined Insurance, but it’s true that this type of sales is not for everyone, and we regret it was not a good fit for you. Having a positive mental attitude, excellent work ethic and the ability to overcome obstacles are all traits our successful agents share. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

Pros

Great company to work for. Good leadership and as an employee you have access to contacts of all levels of management. I’ve noticed people with bad reviews of the company because they haven’t succeeded or had a bad experience with a manager. This company gives you all the tools you need to succeed. From paid Training, to plenty of leads for customers as well as concern and motivation from management. If you as an agent do not succeed, your manager is penalized. So any one that says a manager did not have an interest in their success, is either lazy, doesn’t have to will to do what is needed in commission based sales, is lying about their experience or had a manager that didn’t care about their personal pay or success (which I have yet to encounter with this company) I’m not saying there aren’t managers that don’t care, because there may very well be some. But I haven’t seen or met any myself. Regardless of that. An agent is encouraged to reach out to different levels of management in the company for help, advice, and concerns with their job. Overall a great company and group of people to work with.

Cons

I do rack up the miles on my vehicle and spend a lot of money in fuel. And in some weeks when I have had a bad week it has been rough trying to fork out the money to make sure I’m in the field. And in some cases, policyholders initial payment may not go through or maybe the wrong info is put in and the company is unable to collect the first premium. I’m those cases the agent is charged back the amount of commission that was paid in their next paycheck before they have a chance to correct the issue and collect the payment.
