Pros

The best thing about Goosehead is the opportunity for growth. The company is growing very quickly and there are several opportunities for leadership. For example, Goosehead is opening two offices in The Woodlands, Texas and Chicago, IL, and is promoting two sales managers to run the offices. As Goosehead expands into more states, the opportunities for leadership will continue to expand. You can also make a lot of money at Goosehead - one of the greatest things about the insurance industry is the ability to build a robust book of business overtime that continues to pay out every year. Goosehead's model allows you to sell more insurance faster than anywhere else in the industry. We also have a culture on our sales floor that is second to none. Goosehead is a meritocracy so you know your sales manager has gone through the same sales and growth process as you and can mentor you to be a successful Goosehead agent.

Cons

It is hard word - you cannot expect to accumulate wealth without working hard. It is a sales job - if you do not have the confidence to sell products and services, then this may not be the opportunity for you.

Pros

I have had experience working in several other companies including a wide variety of cultures, management styles, industries, and growth potential. Never have I been a part of an organization more ambitious, and capable as Goosehead Insurance. I have been here for 5 years, and am so grateful for the umatched professional development I have received here. This is a unique organization to be a part of, where your friends and family are so envious of the stability, environment, and opportunity you have, that they eventually become a part of it. I have never seen a culture that is so infectious, you and everyone you know can work in harmony and yet accomplish fast paced growth and progress - where typically pressure and stress burn you out. Not here. If you have the fortunate opportunity to be a part of this organization, you know what I mean.

Cons

We attract and keep ambitious professionals, and the culture is pay for performance. If you are not open to working outside of 9a-5p, this may not be right for you (specific to sales). Though hours may be longer, there are a variety of roles in the company that offer more flexible hours. I have a family (including a 2 year old daughter) and though I work hard, and tend to work extended hours, I have a great balance and work-life integration. The company strongly supports family life.

Your own hours, great training

Cons

Hard work, takes forever to get your commission, don't like adding on a agency fee to the already high premiums' to customers
