Pros

If you're new to insurance it will be a good stepping stone to a better company

Cons

Theres no leadership what so ever... the management motto should be "pass the buck" because the offer no helpful advise other then "heres how to stay off a list". The work load is insane... theres an average of 280 pending, but that doesnt include record only! Add an additional 80 to 120 record only files and the work product becomes sub par. Oh and in a recent meeting the so called ceo armstrobgstates "I had no Iidea our customers were 80% spanish speaking"... seriously... also the worst insurance plan I've seen a company have... it'd be cheaper to not even have the insurance and pay everything out of pocket.

Pros

Expenses are all covered. You get a car and they pay for gas.

Cons

Managers have no idea what is going on in your territories. Upper management has no interest in your success. They will tell you what you want to hear and never follow through. Salary sounds good but good luck getting anything through underwriting. If you are an honest person, this is not the job for you. Policies are made to make the company look good from the outside, but fall way short on their promises. You can go from hero to zero in an instant.

Pros

Not much OT. Walking trails near building.

Cons

Politics and cliques. Many projects are started for no good reason other than a Director wants it done. Directors fight amongst each other like children to get what they want and not necessarilty for the good of the company. Many projects killed half way through. High turn over rate. Will fire you on the spot for no valid reason rather than discussing concerns! I wish I would have never accepted a job offer at this company. Back stabbing people. Beware. Their health insurance sucks too.
