Pros

Country is actually a good company to work for if you never had any insurance and financial experience. I considered their training to be superb and their intentions to be the "best provider of financial security in America" genuine.

Cons

However, not in Southern Nevada. Country is a very conservative company that is not willing to make hard decision in order to grow. Their products are no different than what can be obtained from other major insurance carriers at a fraction of the cost. This makes selling insurance and financial services extremely difficult with them. No name recognition and rates that are so out of reach of most people, it does not matter how hard their financial representatives try. Their affiliation with the Farm Bureau is detrimental to both the financial representatives and clients. The client has to maintain a membership with the Nevada Farm Bureau in order to be eligible for insurance with them. If the client forgets to pay their $15 membership, Country will cancel the policies. This affects the client with the Nevada DMV which in turn will fine the client for the lapse in coverage. Ultimately, representatives miss their benchmarks due to lack of production because they are unable to write new business and are too busy fixing mistakes from previously fired representatives. Retention rate after one year is most likely less than 10%.
