Pros
I could write a book about my 14 months working at Goosehead. For your convenience, this will be short and sweet. I had no sales experience at all coming from the Marine Corps and straight to Goosehead after I finished my degree at Texas A&M. Management saw something in me that I had not yet seen in myself. I consider myself lucky to have found a company in the midst of growing nationally as well as providing all the support I have ever needed to be successful. A few key notes as to why Goosehead is the best company to work for in my humble opinion: - Competitive guaranteed salary while you grow your marketing and sales skills - Unwavering support and coaching (Servant Leadership by some of the best managers I've ever been around...including my time in the Marines) - Meritocracy (if you put in the time and effort, you will make more money than your friends do) - Vast opportunity for personal and professional growth (Within my first year I got selected to co found our first corporate sales office outside of Texas. It will be the first of many) - Young, energetic, and competitive atmosphere (Monthly incentives and company events always keep things interesting around the office)
Cons
If you are not a fan of working with great people for a company that cares about you individually while also providing unmatched opportunity for personal and professional growth, I wouldn't consider Goosehead. The one thing that I do need to disclose is that you will work here. I would say the average work week is around 50 hours/week. But, weekends are always optional.
