      Guardian is a very stable company with limited career growth opportunities and compensation

      Pros

      Stability. Guardian has been in business for a very long time and I believe current management team has the same vision as before - stability comes first. If you are looking for a company to work until you retire - then this is it

      Cons

      Resources are somewhat limited - again not a growth company. Lot's of outsourcing - whether it makes sense or creates problems.

      Was a wonderful place to work but new mgmnt has changed things. My former co-workers are stressed out and unhappy.

      Pros

      Things are different now, but when I worked there it was great. Benefits were great, co-workers were great and so was mgmnt. Lots of opportunities for advancement. Guardian is a solid company with headquarters in NYC.

      Cons

      None while I was working there. Former colleagues who are still working there are very unahppy. Too many managerial changes. Respect for employees personal lives is almost non-existent.

      One of the toughest careers you can do.

      Pros

      The work you do for Guardian makes a real differnce in peoples lives. Children will go to college, people will retire, and dreams will be achieved all because of the work you do.

      Cons

      This job is as tough as it gets. You have to prospect constantly if you want to make it. People are very reluctant to talk about money after the market crash. There is no salary at all, it's 100% commission. This leads to many FR's being very stressed out all of the time. This also makes for little little family time.
