Pros

Great pay, competitive benefits, and annual raises

Cons

This company makes it impossible to be a parent. They do not give sick time, it must be earned. They do not allow you to work from home anymore, even though that was the biggest selling point used by HR for years. They made it a point to say it is inexcusable to work from home even if your children are sick. You will be penalized for using PTO as sick time, and if you’re out of PTO then you will punished further. You will be made to choose between your family and your employer frequently and you’re expected to choose your employer if you want an annual raise as you will be considered “average” otherwise and that is factored into your raise consideration. You are not allowed to have any pride flags or memorabilia at your desk as it is “unprofessional.” In the years I have been here, I have seen more and more stripped from their employees while they report record breaking profits year over year. Please be cautious when signing that contract!

Pros

I’ve had a great experience at Goosehead, especially after moving into a Sales Manager role. The company gives people the opportunity to advance quickly if they’re willing to put in the work. I enjoy coaching and developing new agents, and it’s rewarding to see them grow both professionally and financially. The culture is energetic, leadership invests in training, and top performers are recognized. Like any sales organization, expectations are high and the pace is fast, so it isn’t the right fit for someone looking for a typical 9-to-5. But if you’re self-motivated, coachable, and enjoy competition, there are a lot of opportunities for career growth and strong earning potential.

Cons

Fast-paced environment with high expectations, so you have to be self-driven to succeed.

Pros

Broad Product Access: Agents leverage an expansive portfolio of top insurance carriers rather than being forced to sell a single brand. Passive Income Potential: Sales reps earn uncapped commissions on new business alongside recurring residual income from policy renewals. Strong Peer Culture: The workforce is described as highly motivated, energetic, and welcoming, offering a great environment for young professionals. Dedicated Service Support: Separate service and back-office teams handle ongoing client management, allowing sales agents to focus strictly on closing new business. Professional Development: The firm covers the cost of licensing exams and provides structured Salesforce and business development training. Standard Corporate Perks: Full-time corporate staff receive a complete Goosehead Insurance Employee Benefits Package, including a 401(k) match and an employee stock purchase plan.

Cons

No cons to mention here. - this is a job, you can make it great if you care about what you do and the relationships you are building.
