Goosehead Insurance reviews

I've worked at Goosehead for about a year and half, and it has flown by (in a good way). I've held other positions in the past, but none that have been such a great fit as this position is. If you are a self-driven, competitive, vision-oriented individual, Goosehead will be a great fit. Don't get me wrong, every job has it's up's and down's and this is a sales position - you will experience these emotions in this career path. If you're able to keep your head cool, keep your confidence and keep pushing - this shouldn't phase you. The company represents itself as a meritocracy, which I believe to be 100% true. Opportunities are given to those who are hardworking. Money is made by your own performance. The perk to insurance is that you are able to build your book of business and cushion yourself on a poor-performing month, as the years go on. Again, I caution - this job is only for go-get'ers and hard-workers. If you're not committed to busting it when you first arrive in the Account Exec position, move on. After the first two years (although I'm not quite there), it seems like you really settle into the position. I'm located in Houston, TX - the company culture is bar none down here. I LOVE the atmosphere, the people I work with, the 'vibe' in the office. And I really appreciate that this company will go to bat to preserve this culture for it's employees. Can't speak highly enough about my office culture - these people are the highlight of my day.

I have been with Goosehead for more than 3 years and it has created several opportunities for me. Better yet, working for Goosehead has taught me how to create opportunities for myself. In life, you can't wait for things to happen; You have to make them happen. Meritocracy is the best way run a company. You eat what you kill! However, the support that you get from everybody is unmatched. It's nearly impossible to imagine working for an organization wherein everybody(no matter the tenure/position) will stop whatever it is that their doing to help you. We have that at Goosehead. We've dominated the marketplace for a while and continue to widen the gap through our innovative practices. This is a company that is made for A players. There is no ceiling and you control how much you want to ear by the work you put in. In the first year, you will work your tail off, but this should be expected in anything that you want to be successful at. In my opinion, the 2nd year is the hardest because you're still working like a first year agent while trying to balance new business and servicing current accounts. However, midway through the 2nd year is where an agent begins to hit their stride. After that, you are in full control of your career growth.
