Pros

The front line people. Other than that not a lot of positives. Management myopically focused on how much money you have generated this quarter.

Cons

Nepotism. Good Ol boy network. If you are one of them, and or related to founding family, your star is on the rise. The truth is that you are a number that can and will be squeezed. The same can be said of how they view of the carriers they work with. How much more commission can we squeeze? Cut throat culture.

Pros

Work from home, Starting pay was amazing. Flexible hours if needed for personal reasons as long as your work 35-40hrs a week.

Cons

First year with GB was great! Had no complaints. I enjoyed being busy. THEN..... It happened... I started typing the cons and it was literally a full-page word document and I was not even near finished with the cons. My advice is to just find a current employee through social media and talk to them about GB DON’T BELIEVE THE REVIEWS WITH NO CONS! They are planted and if you pay attention, they are all Managers/Supervisors. Also, don’t expect a yearly raise with your eval. They don’t give raises, only company swag once a yr they mail to everyone around September or October. You definitely DO NOT get paid for the amount of work and hustle you put in. Initially, you will have a normal caseload and then once you are good and settled, be ready. Everything will change and you will be completely overloaded.

Pros

Job Security, good work life balance, good work for the detail oriented, individual teams can be great.

Cons

non competitive salaries and benefits, "Unless you have a book of business, you are expendable", the only way to get a raise is to leave.
