Pros

There are none that I can think of

Cons

Leadership asks agents to write good reviews so be weary of what you see it’s either fake or from new agents who haven’t seen the ugly side yet. Agents only make money during aep and then the plans are canceled anyways and you have to pay back the commissions. The company doesn’t hit numbers anymore it’s all smoke and mirrors. $18/hr is not a livable wage and benefits do not make up for it. They promote anyone with a pulse so you will end up working under someone who has no management experience. Constant micromanagement, out of touch CEO, poor lead quality..the list goes on. They filter converting leads to top agents so lower performing ones never have a chance to do better and eventually fire them.

Cons

Cutt throat and toxic sales environment Management burns out salespeople and employs the most aggressive sales tactics on the planet Workload is insane, 6 plus hours of talk time a day, and mostly 1 call closes Not upfront about shift times and hours worked Commission is not as good as advertised Management over estimates revenue to investors

Pros

The pay can be good.

Cons

I loved GoMedigap (now eHealth) when I first started working there, but it slowly began moving away from actually helping seniors with important Medicare decisions to becoming more transactional and less morally sound. As someone who's worked with seniors for many years, it felt largely unethical to me, personally. They micromanage you, listen to your calls without your knowledge, and play your calls in front of the whole team so everyone can analyze exactly what you did wrong (trust me, doesn't do anything for your morale/confidence). There is no structure or standardization in HR processes nor upper management. They mostly fly by the seat of their pants and say they care about their employees but I found that to be vastly untrue. I had a death in my immediate family and they did not give me bereavement nor adjust any of my goals, even when I had to miss a few days to take care of this person during their final days. Very hot/cold temperatures with management (act like they love you to your face and talk negatively behind your back). Ultimately they care more about the business than they do the employees. Extremely toxic environment. Apply at your own risk.
