      too expensive after 4 years and you pay for everything

      Financial services representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Brand Recognition Good Training Nice work atmosphere Nice Place to start and learn the business (2.5 yrs)

      Cons

      You can sell more but because of fees you make less and less every year- aprox $270 a week to work Even though you have a general agency everything is based on Metlife core products, your grid drops and you lose your benefits if you dont sell metlife... which metlife not always in best interest of client..managers push you to sell core products. Compensation is very heavily weighted on insurance products

      Not a warm or welcoming place

      Group benefits consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Flexible schedule, many departments and divisions if looking for opportunities to move forward within the company

      Cons

      Experience with a manager who gave new opportunities to favorite reps instead of reps who'd earned the opportunities. Also did most of the managing from the phone or email instead of hands on assistance in the field.
