Pros

If you have a good management staff and are willing to cold call and sell insurance until you build your practice this place is not a bad place to start.

Cons

My management staff, starting with the director, used our firm as a way to make themselves rich. They have since been terminated, or quit, but it is very easy for anyone to fall into this situation. Use your instincts, ask probing questions during the interview process, if you get vague answers something is wrong.

Pros

Good support for new people managers were very helpful and always available

Cons

Micromanage every second of your time; have to put in a request to go to the bathroom and wait for someone to grant it Expect you to put exceptions to your time after your shift ends on your own time Half hour lunch by the time I brought my lunch or heated my leftovers and went to the bathroom. I barely had time to wolf it down. Unrealistic call times Systems are horrible and crashing all the time expect you to be in at least 15 minutes before your shift unpaid to set up all the programs on your computer
