Pros

Strong and growing brand recognition in the insurance industry. Good work-life balance. Knowing that you have the opportunity to help people who are effected by a catastrophic event.

Cons

Inept management - Donan could do so much more to improve employee happiness and productivity if they would take action with its management. High turnover- I mean high and in every department. Friction within departments. Salary is low ($50,000-53,000) Commission is paid based on clients home office locations. Which is great for a few but not for the majority of sales managers. Most earn $400-900 per month, while two to there sales managers earn $2,500-4,000 per month because of their location. Favoritism among several of the sales team and management. Installing tracking software on employees phones without informing or explanation. Lack of career advancement.. Even with 300% revenue growth over 6 years and positive reviews from my manager I came to feel unappreciated and promotion was unlikely.

Pitiful SE Regional Management

Pros

Used to be a decent company. The SE regional management is so egotistical that it's hard to tolerate him for more than 5 minutes at a time.

Cons

Narcissistic SE Regional Management . I would still be there if it weren't for this maniacal imbecile.
