Pros
Well established company Good values Good bonus package (if u meet sales goals) Lot s of available (free) resources Promotions are available to successful agents
Cons
Management sometimes don't even know what resources are available to agents There are very few support people available to help you with questions You have to spend a lot on marketing yourself or you have to spend a lot of time chasing cold leads At the interview process, they want you to start immediately, they don't tell you that you can keep your current job for 6 months to one year while you test the waters. I would have stayed if they let me test the waters first to get a feel of the industry. They push you a lot to get your natural market. Not a good idea if you end up leaving and your friends and family will be marketed to by another agent you don't know. Agents get money for referrals so they lie to their teeth to get you in as well, and they get your orphan clients when you leave.
