Pros

-A lot of great people work here. -Can wear whatever you like. -Can build great relationships with your customers.

Cons

I left NTG because it has completely changed from what it used to be. -Micromanagement is the only management. -If you aren't on the phone you will be asked why you aren't on the phone, despite what you are working on. -Have to make an insane amount of phones calls each day (depends on your book of business, 120+ for new hires). Mostly talking to voicemails, or recycled leads that already told your coworker they weren't interested earlier that day. Literally everyone calls the same companies. -Pay structure has completely changed, and it is definitely not worth the stress - and it is very high stress. Not only the industry, but majority the pressure put on you by management. -Pay cuts are made for "resources" that you will never see. -There is absolutely no control. Things go wrong all the time - with carriers and customers. -This company is driven by greed. Looking out for those at the very top and not its employees. -Depending on your customers/carriers, you may be working a lot of after hours & weekends. -It is the good ol' boy clubs. And if you don't give in to the frat house mentality, you will be shunned. -If you aren't 10+ minutes early, you are late. Don't even think about leaving at 5pm. -No one is happy anymore. I made it a point to ask every single broker in our office if they were happy before I made my decision to leave - No all around. -Always on edge in the office, management is looking for reasons you call you out or write you up. A lot of the managers (including GMs, Team Leaders, VP, Regional GMs) are following orders and most are just awful managers. -High turnover. -Managers will call you during lunch to ask where you are. And will call you after hours if you forgot to send them your "top 5 best conversations" for that day or whatever other meaningless task that is a complete waste of time. -I remember when I was asked to write a positive review on Glassdoor by NTG. I could go on for hours, but this company has already consumed way too much of my time. This company is not worth the stress you will endure. Sure, they will hire anybody straight out of college, but this is not where you want to start your career.

Pros

The people make work easier and enjoyable.

Cons

Logistics is constantly changing. This is not a company issue, but you have to be prepared to stay on your toes and adjust on the fly in this industry.

Pros

NTG was a place where I thought I would be long term. Working in the Dallas office, I genuinely felt like I had found a home. I enjoyed everyone I met and the friendships I made along the way. The memories I made with my hiring class are ones I’ll never forget. I sincerely hope our paths cross again. I’d also like to thank my managers for their exceptional leadership. I truly gained valuable skills that I’ll carry with me into my next role. The same goes for everyone I met in NTG’s Austin office during my visit.

Cons

As for the companies decision, I have a lot of thoughts. From my perspective, this came down to numbers on a spreadsheet. What wasn’t seen was the work that many of us put in behind the scenes during a very difficult market, often working stale accounts that had little chance of converting because of past relationships and mistakes. I strongly disagree with the decision. That said, I can honestly say I gave this job everything I had and more. I left it all on the field, and I’ll always be proud of that. Despite how things ended, I’m grateful for my experience at NTG, the people I met, and everything I learned along the way. I’m excited to see what I can accomplish in my next role and where this next chapter takes me.
