Liberty Mutual Insurance reviews

Hours, though I heard they have a new system of paying reps a low salary by the hour now. Picky on who they insure...leads to less sales...leads to being fired. Terrible NetQuote Internet leads, so you have to pay (a lot) for other internet leads. My office did not field train me, then when it came close to me being let go, they ask me to try to sell to friends and family (I had already tried to but rates were outragous). Customer service reps in your office can choose who to send a new business quote to, so buy them food! Being the best-dressed telemarketer in a suit in the evenings. Working in a cubicle next to your competition (other sales reps). Driving to the customers house just to get a signiture and try to sell them life insurance that is overpriced.

You will be overworked and micromanaged - micromanaged like you've never been micromanaged before... Promotions are based not on merit, but with your length of time with the company and on how aggressive your manager is in pushing for your promotion (which needs to be approved by upper management). Most talented individuals leave the company after a year or two for better opportunities. And this is where the problem of promotions based on one's length of time with the company become a problem. You see, those who would not be competitive in the global jobs market know that if they just wait around at Liberty Mutual, they will move up the corporate ladder into management positions. As such, there are some truly horrendous mid-level managers at Liberty Mutual - uneducated, uninspiring, lacking the social skills required of a manager, micromanaging, etc.
