      Pros

      The workplace environment is amazing with the pma Philosophy( positive mental attitude) I am in charge of my schedule and income. They train at all levels after 13 yes I still get great training and support from my management team.

      Cons

      This is sales!!! If you can't handle that this is not the career path for you. Most people that have many cons about combined just couldn't do it and rather than admit it blame this great organization. This company has given my family a new life. I make such figures and have secured financial freedom.

      Advice to Management

      Keep up the good work

      Pros

      The money is great, I’m helping people, I have the flexibility to go to all of my kids sporting events. Thanks for the opportunity !!

      Cons

      If I had it pick one it would be flying to Chicago for training when hired. Then again it was the best training I’ve ever seen. Just missed my kids! :)

      Advice to Management

      Overall I felt like the managers make this feel like a team, a family environment.

      I worked at Combined Insurance full-time

      Pros

      They give you everything you need to be successful, but you have to put in the work.

      Cons

      Nothing in life is perfect. They have a few areas that could be improved, but you only hurt yourself if you get a negative attitude about it

      Advice to Management

      Give new managers more time to make a difference. I saw two good managers leave unfortunately.

      Pros

      Decent pay if you are good with people.

      Cons

      Long hours (5 to 6 10 to 12 hour days) an excessive amount of meetings. Meetings twice a week and sent out of town for meetings about once a month effectively losing 2 days of field work.

      Pros

      Ongoing training, daily meetings - PMA - colleagues are nice. Incentive trips. 401K

      Cons

      Many promises of $100K, realistically the 55% commission is broken down to as low as 20% after you sell. The company keeps 80%. High turn-over, revolving door. If you have a license, your Hired! A lot of family members are hired, therefore expect to receive leads 60 miles away or more.

      Advice to Management

      Be realistic and honest with salary expectations.

      I have been working at Combined Insurance full-time (Less than a year)

      Pros

      So far so good. I have just completed my 3rd day of training. So I'm writing this review from my hotel. I am very excited about this new opportunity. I have read some of the reviews on here some negative some positive but I am never going to allow my self to be discouraged by someone else's failure. I will say that this training is intense but I know its going to pay off and I look forward to doing another review in 3 months to update you on my success. The breakfast at the hotel is very good and the company pays for everything. They fly you in and pay for your lodging. They give you a prepaid credit card that you can use for food and things that you need. My trainer is very knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor. My room is very clean . They shuttle you to and from training and the cafeteria food is pretty darn good. As far as income potential they really give you a positive out look.

      Cons

      They throw a lot at you in a short time. You have to stay on your toes and memorize a lot of information but you know the old saying no pain no gain.
