Pros

I actually had there coverage when I worked for an organization, and I had other co-workers who had the coverage also and they all nothing but good things to say the plans all worked to there benefit.

Cons

I was hired by this company and I only lasted 6 days on the job, I had 3 days of classroom orientation, & 3 days of field orientation with a District Sales Coordinator. There was no pay for sitting in class for 8 hours while they feed you the way of The"Duck". I was told that we got paid during the training period well I only got paid when I got out into the field with the DSC and I received a portion of his commission from the business he conducted. Not at all what I expected a total disappointment.

Pros

Freedom to be your own boss, trips, bonuses, renewable income (instead of one time commission), career instead of just a job. FORTUNE 500 and a World's most Ethical Company. Great training (at least here in Wyoming) and a family mentality. Great family/work balance.

Cons

No base pay, can be a slow start at first, you have to be very organized and self-driven, have to be licensed in life and health to sell insurance (but my management help with the process).
