Pros

great product great people great learning experience They are more then willing to function as a jumping off point for your career path

Cons

100% commision Draw (you owe money back if the policy holder doesn't pay) very little understanding of the need for supplemental insurance. Sales is always a numbers game but it is worse when everyone thinks they understand and do not need to hear anything you have to say when they are in fact completely and totally wrong on every assumption they make.

Pros

Freedom to be your own boss, trips, bonuses, renewable income (instead of one time commission), career instead of just a job. FORTUNE 500 and a World's most Ethical Company. Great training (at least here in Wyoming) and a family mentality. Great family/work balance.

Cons

No base pay, can be a slow start at first, you have to be very organized and self-driven, have to be licensed in life and health to sell insurance (but my management help with the process).
