Pros

Great immediate managers, knowledgeable and understanding. The coworkers are all great and it is a family type of environment. We get food every week, and there are prizes given for sales and promotions.

Cons

Terrible Sales Director. Has not sold one policy in his life, does not care about the sales reps, they are all a number to him. The corporate management along with the finance management have managed to systematically replace all the seasoned sales agents with new ones by setting up a tier system where only about 20 percent of the salesforce makes great money, the turnover is very high (they are ok with the turnover). If you say anything wrong they will faze you out into non existence, by slowly cutting your lead flow and quality of leads (this is when good agents just end up leaving). Agents are not allowed to say what is wrong or have an opinion, it is just a metric number system to corporate management, they could care less who you are. They also require all agents to sell other products (id theft and home warranty) or you get your commission lowered. This company is night and day from 4 years ago, again you are just a number as an agent. They have allowed to just have sales cancelled for an infinite amount of reasons just to keep the commission in house. Many newly hired agents leave within 90 days from being on the floor, as a new agent you get nothing to sell, just renters insurance, you cannot sell the good companies. If you are looking to feel like a underpaid robot come work at selectquote. The corporate office was going to send a survey to rate management and when they found out the management reviews would be terrible they never sent the survey. They want to pay you like if you work at a fast food restaurant but they want to demand work as if you work at Microsoft.

Pros

Annual bonus based on employee and company performance

Cons

Annual salary is way below national average, especially based on years of experience. They've talked about promoting all QA Analysts to QA Engineer for years (due to the fact we're all fulfilling QA Engineer roles but with the Analyst title and pay), but every year they had a new excuse as to why they couldn't promote everyone. The workload far outweighs the pay.
