Pros

The only pro is that I met other agents that will remain friends after we have all left this scam of a company.

Cons

Cons are they hire anyone that is willing to be there. The managers at this branch are neither qualified or experienced. The Branch manager is full of himself and runs the branch like a Cult. Either you are there and buy into his life 100% or you are casted out. The other 2 managers seem to hate each other and constantly contradict one another. There is no "Real" manager with management training or education. The branch manager claims to be an attorney that attended Harvard, Yale and Berkley, however he has very poor grammar and can't be located on the alumni pages. All of this is relevant because it shows the extent that this group of people will lie to a new agent. They do not care about the agent being successful all they want is to split applications with new agents and get them to sell to all of their friends and family so they can get a part of the commission. If a new agent leaves after a few months they don't care because they made income off of them. They will tell you they want you to be their partner but they will not help you when you really need it. The training and lectures are repeated over and over and you are expected to make 200 calls a day to people they claim they sent information out too but as time goes on you realize that is also not true. You will also be cut out of commission by the branch F.A. as well as the Unit Field Trainers you will do the work and suffer and they will walk away with the rewards. Try the Laguna , Long Beach, Pasadena, Los Angeles or Riverside branch, run from the Brea branch....Scott Perry you have a LOT of work to do in Brea.

Pros

Bankers provides award winning training, an elaborate product portfolio and a rapidly growing market. They leverage cutting edge technology: contact and LEAD management, electronic business submission, an incredible proprietary mobile application. I have 11 companies I can be appointed with - making sure my clients get the best program for what they NEED. A great opportunity to receive great training, work with great people and make a great living, all for helping people.

Cons

This opportunity is just that, an opportunity. Those who don't take advantage of it won't think it is a good one. Even successful people deal with a ton of rejection, thick skin is needed. With a 40% closing ratio, I still hear "No" more than "Yes".
