      Awful company to work for

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent pay and lots of room to move between positions. Female dominant workplace.

      Cons

      Dishonest when hiring upon what to expect shift wise (for the call centre). Very gossipy, high-school drama like environment. Masculine men will not last long; they will fire you for absolutely nothing. High levels of stress leave among employees and mandatory overtime. But what did I expect from an insurance company...they don't care about their employees at all. They are always hiring because they are always firing too. Tenured employees take drastic pay cuts to leave to work elsewhere.

      Not bad if you find a fit

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Work life balance, good pay, great training, great support system, managers support, I work with great staff, great people to work with

      Cons

      The pay is 100% commission, you need to be able to source for leads and prospect to survive, cancellations and declines means your commission will be clawed back

      Pros

      Great place to learn. Great benefits and pay. Work is not hard. Nice people.

      Cons

      All the really talented people have left. No career advancement unless you're in Canada. Talk a lot about diversity, but let great people of color walk out the door.
