Very costly - Insurance Agent Optavise Employee Review

Very inclusive company to work for. Benefits were amazing, culture was amazing, leadership was equally amazing. My direct manager really poured into my development and helping me reach my individual goals.

The company closed, otherwise I would have spent the rest of my career there.

None Experienced or observed during my time here

Extremely unprofessional recruiting and onboarding process with zero accountability. I was recruited directly by this company — I did not apply. Based on assurances from the recruiter, I was encouraged to leave a stable, paying job and submit my two-weeks notice. My original start date was then pushed back into mid-December, which immediately caused financial strain for my family during the holidays. When I was finally placed into my first class, my contract was terminated within the first 40 minutes, without any explanation. I was not given a performance issue, warning, or corrective feedback. The only communication I received afterward was an offer of a letter of recommendation — which does nothing to address the real-world consequences of their actions. As a direct result of this company’s recruitment and sudden cancellation, I was left without income, facing severe financial hardship including vehicle repossession risk and housing instability. When I raised these concerns, the response was simply, “There’s nothing we can do.” This experience demonstrated a complete lack of empathy, responsibility, and ethical consideration — especially troubling for a company operating in the insurance industry, which claims to serve vulnerable populations. The damage caused by their mismanagement has been life-altering. If you value job security, transparency, and basic human decency, proceed with extreme caution.
