Pros

Provides a good 8 week training. Massive hiring was done in 2023, good commission during the first of the yr and towards the end changes made to commission pay out and metrics to meet and harder to make good monthly commission. Benefits are good.

Cons

gradually the commission pay out changed along with the metrics to meet. They filter the better leads to their DC3's making other consultants receiving lower scored leads and harder to get enrollments. After about a yr they will start to monitor you when not meeting the monthly goal and then your given a verbal notice then if not better next month it's a written and then if numbers still not met then your terminated. No work life balance and the mgr coachings are repetitive and some expect you to change your script and say how they want you to say it. The mgr makes it like a daily contest which is done through slack daily and it's always the top producers which are dc3's enrolling daily because they get the higher scored leads. You are constantly working early morning or late evening to get better connects and better leads and always working on your days off. I have pretty much worked everyday of the month with one day off a week sometimes

Pros

I have been with Achieve for nearly 13 years, and it continues to be a place I truly enjoy working. The people here make all the difference—there is a strong sense of collaboration, support, and inclusivity that you don’t often find elsewhere. I appreciate the diversity within the organization and how valued different perspectives are. Leadership is supportive, and I have had a great experience with my supervisor, who encourages growth and teamwork. Even in a remote environment, Achieve does an excellent job fostering connection and maintaining a culture that genuinely feels like a family. I’m proud to be part of a company that prioritizes its employees and creates a positive, engaging work environment. I love the option to work from home it makes my life a little easier :)

Cons

I do not have any significant cons to note. In my experience, Achieve has been a great place to work. I feel fortunate to genuinely enjoy what I do and to be part of a company that I believe in.

Pros

- The people are generally very kind and collaborative broadly. - I believe the company is genuine in its mission to only earn profits by helping everyday Americans move forward on the path to a better financial future. - The company at large and some of its leaders aren't afraid to try things and then pivot if they don't work to try something else, instead of doubling down over pride or ego or stubbornness.

Cons

- There's a lack of clear and strategic leadership that leaves job ambiguity, which places the employee at a disadvantage with performance measurement, which is how they award quarterly bonuses. Without clear SMART goals, it becomes a game of bring me a rock, but not that rock. - Towards the end, they were implementing a start-up entrepreneurial mindset style that was leaning away from valuing work/life balance and getting more demanding and desperate in attempts to meet metrics.
