Pros

Great place to start a career with insurance. Decent training programs in classroom and online. Most of the managers are helpful in regards to the work-life balance.

Cons

Lousy raises that are not annual increases. Mangagement is extremely cliquish. They constantly talk about other employees therefore everyone seems to know your business. Most of the employess live locally and have never worked at any other companies, hence minimal growth.

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
