Pros

I had a horrible time, the position I was in and management you have to deal with. Suffice to say I can’t name a pro. Maybe decent choice of hours?

Cons

-direct manager of department is entirely incompetent, it’s well known throughout the agents but tolerated by upper management for whatever reason. -2nd manager over the entire sales department plays good cop, but seems to keep his head down. -goals are unrealistic. They got this way by offering “incentives” for hitting double the daily goal. Which was fine when the daily goal is reachable, but the company, being greedy, said that because everyone was getting the incentive fairly often, why not double the daily goals and incentives requirements. And now you have low wage workers making less in commission and working a lot harder. Plus management goes after you if you aren’t hitting the goal (and you have a monthly goal, which can get you fired). -Health plans seem great, but they refuse to cover any “restricted” drugs. Which tend to be the most expensive... interesting. I ended up paying out of pocket for 3 of my 4 meds.

Pros

Career Stability: The company offers a strong sense of job security, which has allowed me to build a long-term career without constant uncertainty. Opportunities to Grow: I have been able to advance my career over time and take on increasing responsibilities, gaining valuable skills along the way. Supportive Team Environment: Many colleagues are collaborative, knowledgeable, and willing to help, which creates a positive day-to-day work atmosphere. Industry Experience: Working here has provided deep insight into the industry and allowed me to build expertise that would be difficult to replicate elsewhere.

Cons

Slow Advancement Pace: While I have progressed, the pace of advancement has been slower than I initially expected or desired. Career growth can sometimes feel limited or dependent on timing rather than performance. Limited Recognition at Times: Efforts and long-term contributions don’t always feel fully recognized or rewarded proportionally. Bureaucracy: Decision-making processes can be slow, which can hinder innovation and momentum. Compensation Growth: In some cases, compensation hasn’t kept up with the level of responsibility or tenure.

Pros

I don't really see any pros after reading reviews.

Cons

Poor, indirect communication. First contact was a recording. The second contact was another recording. They requested that I dress professionally for a zoom call, which I did consider. However, after researching the company, I am convinced that this is not a supportive environment.
