Pros

The job is a great introduction into the insurance sales business or anything that has to do with knowing insurance benefits. You learn to work with many different people and you learn how to juggle a lot of work.

Cons

This is a very demanding job. You do overtime almost year round, some times it’s mandatory to do. You really have to be sure you want to be in a sales business because that’s ultimately where this job lies. Also most of the time, they hire temps for this job so you feel like you may not have a future at this company even though they say there’s great benefits to being there for a long time. You can’t use your vacation time from August till thanksgiving because that’s the busiest part of the year.

Pros

Remote work once a week.

Cons

- Managers strike off your name from presentations and present it as their own - Extremely political environment - Employees running their private consulting businesses off their company laptops - H1B employees promoted for lower salaries over American workers - Management makes decisions without considering employees. Moved everyone from NYC to Holmdel and there is not even a cafeteria in Holmdel. - Expect you to work extremely long hours and never recognize the work you put in - No respect for women although run by a woman CEO - Expect you to work out of various offices in the North East without paying any expenses - Zero Work Life Balance
