Pros

The company promotes a work life balance and healthy team culture. Since the pandemic we have switched over to Hybrid work schedules with full time remote options. From a company that was previously not at all flexible, management is now super flexible on schedules and both in office and work from home options. Phly also offers several volunteer opportunities both in person and virtual and provides employees with paid volunteer hours so we have a chance to give back without losing time at work or pay. In the company's mission to promote health & wellness amongst it's employees, they provided an extended lunch hour to those who to go the gym on their lunch, they pay up to a certain amount for all field employees gym membership. There is also a state of the art corporate fitness facility at the home office that is open to all employees. Management is transparent about the overall profit of the company and provides a bonus to the employees when the NOI is met. A town hall is held every couple of months where the executive management provides an update to the employees as to what is going on in each department.

Cons

Initiatives are sometimes rolled out too quickly without it being tested in a focus group first. can be anything from data systems, system clearance etc. High performing employees are sometimes rewarded with more work. Field employees are sometimes forgotten about when it comes to larger projects and we don't often always get the option to participate.

Pros

Flexibility with a hybrid work schedule. Ability to learn more products, so it can be challenging but fun if you are looking for growth. Metrics and everyone knows what to expect which seems to be industry standard across small business.

Cons

None. PTO comparative seems light as you start out.

Pros

Nice people, focus on technology, upper management is usually ahead of insurance trends, immediate supervisors were nice and well meaning. Benefits are good, not great. Good amount of PTO.

Cons

In small business unit, you have monthly quotas and managers are constantly asking how much you are quoting and if you will reach that number. Various levels of punishment if you don’t hit this number. Quality of work, risk selection, accuracy doesn’t really matter, only how much you quote. There is no positive in hitting this number beyond not being bothered until the next month. If you exceed this number consistently, you’ll just be asked to do more. Company is doing everything in its power to save expenses. The pay rate is well below the market. People consistently leave and make much more money elsewhere. Most lower level jobs are being shipped to an Indian company and even the Indian company is having job functions replaced by AI. This is usually at the expense of quality or what our agents actually want. CEOs preach saving expenses and not replacing people, as they show up to your office after flying in a private jet and a car service. Finally, 90% of the people in the region I worked were related to somebody who either works there, were their friends, or were related to agents we did business with. Some of these people had positions made for them, where they sat there and studied for 6 months, instead of promoting people from within. This will also prevent job mobility.
