Pros

*Great benefits * training *provided assistance in obtaining my insurance license *company resources

Cons

*favored tenured reps in a way that made making a decent living hard to achieve *only counted the insurance application not taking into consideration the volume, so a true top rep, bringing in more revenue for the company would not be compensated as much as a rep that just brought in less revenue but a couple more applications. *very staunch on timeclock, helping customers over your scheduled shift should never be punished nor should be taking a bathroom break not on your assigned time, your bladder does not go by a timeclock! *might have just been due to covid times, but lack of support from anyone for questions being answered. General opinion was hang up on customer, don't waste your time and move on to the next paying one!

Pros

None at all. No pros.

Cons

Probably the absolute worst company I have ever worked with by far. My entire training class quit before even hitting the floor to take calls. Inconsiderate management. Turn over rate is ridiculously high. They don’t work with you on your schedule.
