Fast-paced company that's maturing out of the startup phase

Pros

- Smart, hard-working colleagues who really care - Work from home - Solid pay and benefits - Fast growing, profitable company that's here to stay

Cons

We are a mature startup now. We still move pretty fast, but we aren't a young, scrappy startup anymore. As we grow, it gets easier to be silo'd. Management seems to be focusing on this, which is good, but still a place where we could get better.

Pros

Remote work, many great coworkers

Cons

Constantly increasing rates, making it harder to sell and increasing goals at the same time. The agents who are selling the most are typically offering extremely low coverage and really high deductibles because that was the only way to get a competitive price. I felt pressured to neglect my fiduciary duty and offer this type of coverage to meet my goals. Overhired, extremely slow for about 5 months but reassured over and over that the volume will increase soon. When they couldn't gaslight any more, they had to admit that Management's projections were wrong and many agents were the ones to pay the price with mass layoffs. Terrible upper management that messed up projections and lied about it.

Thank you for sharing your perspective. As a member-owned company, it’s crucial to us that we provide coverage that truly benefits our customers, and we never want agents to feel pressured to offer anything less than what's best. As a growth-stage company, we aim to align our team’s structure and resources with both our current needs and our future goals as we expand into new markets. While our goal is to always serve our customers and employees to the best of our ability, we recognize there’s always room for improvement. Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you the best moving forward.
