COUNTRY Financial Reviews

Pros

Many employees have been around for years. I started with Country Financial over 20 years ago right out of college. I have stuck with this company due to their culture, pension plan and opportunity for growth.

Advice to Management

When showing new job postings, please consider those that are more remote as in not located at major hubs such as Atlanta, Bloomington. Many remote workers would like to know if a new job may fit their skill set but often these jobs are posted at a location when they likely can be done from someone working from home. Making it clear if a job can be done remotely would be a big deal for many employees who feel left out.

Pros

Promote from within Employee development i

Advice to Management

Stay the course I I.

Pros

They pay you a small salary to learn how to sell insurance. The home office employees are great and helpful

Advice to Management

Treat everyone with a fair opportunity. I was at Country Financial for 5 years I made all of my benchmarks when I was ready to convert I would be making $700 a month I found out that a book was given to career reps that didn't do 1/8 of my production. They were part of the old boys club. Opportunities are not equal.

Visible, encouraging leadership
Endless development and advancement opportunities
Strong traditional and fringe benefits (401k, Pension, health/life/vision/etc., competitive pay - especially for the area /// flexible work situations, good work/life balance, company events & gifts)

Continue empowering employees to make decisions and know that their work matters. Additionally, stay (fairly) visible and present in the office to maintain relationships.

Advice to Management

Fix your model, it isn't working. It's more like a pyramid scheme than an insurance company! Let alone a "financial" company.

Great benefits and great people. Promote growth within the company.

Pros

good products sold by the company

Pros

Nice people and work environment overall. Decent benefits. Hours aren't bad. You can stand when you're working at your desk.

Advice to Management

Be welcoming to new opinions. If you can't give people opportunities that are on par with what the rest of the industry is doing, this is problematic. What is motivating people to stay when the things they're working on have already been figured out by our competitors and other industries? What is there to be excited about in an environment like this, where you're just trying to catch up but not doing anything new or innovative? Empower people and put them in positions where they can create meaningful change.
