Business Outlook
Pros
Country has a excellent training program for new agents. Country offers a base salary helping new agents get established. The support of the home office, the claim's department and underwriting is a huge asset for the agents.
Cons
It is very difficult to find a work-life balance in this job. The emphasis for new agents is sales. However, there is a lot of service work that eats into servicing current clients. This becomes more evident as your business grows. There is not enough agent support staff for new agents. It is a great way to learn the business, but it takes away from sales which new agents are measured.
