Pros

There were no pros - very toxic work environment.

Cons

I experienced frequent public criticism, micromanagement, exclusion from communication, and constantly shifting expectations. Training and performance guidance were inconsistent, and I was informed I would be required to relocate indefinitely to another location despite my offer specifying my original site. I also witnessed unprofessional conduct, including sexual conversations, jokes about illegal substance use in the company bathroom, shopping for firearms during company time, and disparaging remarks about customers’ financial status. Workplace policies appeared inconsistently enforced. The role was presented as supportive and growth-oriented, but my experience did not reflect that. Overall, this was a challenging environment, particularly for someone new to the industry.

Pros

Great company to work for, it almost sells itself in conversation because people recognize the brand.

Cons

If you're just starting you really need to grind to make money. You can pretty much expect to not make money selling insurance unless you get good at selling life policies. That will help your earning potential substantially as it helps your auto and home sales go up. That's to say that you get 2%-4%-6%-8% of auto/home once you sell a certain amount of life policies.

Pros

You get weekends off and don’t have to work weekends only Monday through Friday

Cons

Lopez, low salary loss of expectations fairly offer any raises or any commission
