Shelter Insurance reviews

The salaried agent program was a joke. They made me believe that I would be making a small base salary and then commission on sales I brought in. However, they forgot to mention that you only make commission the first year. Which I expected for Life Insurance, but not property and casualty. They also expect agents in rural areas to make the same goals during life campaigns as those in larger cities, which I don't think makes a lot of sense. Another thing that was discouraging was the fact quotas for life sales run quarterly, and sometimes we would have a life campaign start the next day, so even if I had just gotten a policy issued, it was no help in the campaign. Overall, it was stressful and a terrible job! Underwriters also waited weeks before declining properties, so customer thought they were in the clear, and then they would cancel on them.

Haven't found anything bad so far. I get to listen to music while I work all day and I talk to my manager daily.
