Pros

Good initial training in 1st week in their corp. headquarters, terrible free breakfast, lousy lunch, and dinner is on yourself. They put you up in a lousy hotel.

Cons

Local training is terrible, you pay first for office usage. iPad rentals, fess, fees and more fees. It costs about $250 per month and you are lucky to make $70 per closed transaction. That is if its not stolen first by the people who train you. Branch manager is a liar and expects you to work about 60 hours per week, evenings, weekends, and you get paid nothing. Saturday morning meetings? If you don't come to them you get punished and your local training is reduced. Not only are you competing against other agents in the industry, but you compete against your own fellow agents in the office for the same leads. Leads are 2-3 years old and you'll receive a list of 300 leads, all but 5 are wrong phone numbers and wrong addresses. Expect to go through several tanks of gas without reimbursement. Some clients were called and visited by the different agents in the same office on many occasions and made the same clients upset and file harassment complaints. Their business model is severely flawed and antiquated. Imagine selling encyclopedias door to door. Expect to be backstabbed and lied to. Don't waste your time and money here. The company is nothing more than a hedge fund waiting to be bought out.

Pros

Some good co-workers (although most of the GOOD agents/managers have left)

Cons

pretty much all of it.First you sign your life away (the blues),they get most of your comm and renewals,the leads are NOT free and usually churned over and over again between agents and they will most likely steel your renewals once you leave.They beat up on their current customer base and in general dont have a very good reputation in general.
