Pros

Payed the bills but barely.

Cons

A lot of people mentioning that you need to work hard here and implying people leave or unhappy because they are not. This is simply untrue. The whole system is rigged and favourites are provided with easy wins and the whole team is ranked by premium first to last for everyone to see. You’re asked to justify your rank on a weekly basis and any explanation is ruled as incompetence. This promoted a culture of looking after one’s own work to meet these demands and team culture is low. Very telling that 4 people left in my first month from the team. The whole structure is build on brining in young cheap labour to churn through menial work and if they is any pushback they are chased out. Having worked in Underwriting previously, I wouldn’t call what CFC are teaching as Underwriting. It’s ticking boxes and pushing quotes out in minutes to stay on track for the high volume of quotes expected of you.
