Pros
Goosehead Insurance is a great place to start your career or to expand your career if you are in a stagnant job. The best thing about working at Goosehead is that we are always looking for ways to improve, so new ideas are constantly encouraged. This was a great change for me coming from a large company that "had everything figured out." Goosehead has experienced incredible growth since I joined the company and continues to grow more quickly each year. This creates unparalleled opportunities for individual professional growth while working with an extremely talented team that will push you to reach your max potential. The other thing that makes Goosehead so special is my coworkers. They are my second family and closest friends, so I look forward to each workday simply because I enjoy working with everyone here. There are lots of social events like beach volleyball and dodgeball tournaments, charity events, team incentives, and social hours that help you form these personal connections.
Cons
The starting compensation may be lower than some other companies, but those who work hard and perform well will find that the annual comp adjustments more than make up for this over time. If you're just looking for a short-term job vs. starting a career, Goosehead is probably not the best fit. Most positions are salaried and/or commission-based, and we all have a "leave when the job is done" mentality, so those looking for a very set schedule may struggle. On the flip-side, this allows greater flexibility when someone may need to come in later or leave earlier.
