Pros

The training was really good and in depth about Medicare

Cons

They lied about commission, they cut our pay, they just want numbers and to get them they encourage agents to do things that go against agents integrity. They are now making agents gather names and numbers of other people in the clients household so it's another person they can harass. They say that we are there to help people, but when we do try we're only allowed to help them buy something, no matter if it is a bad sale and won't actually be helping the correct, but hurting them instead. They say they don't cold call, but they do pay other companies to cold call for them. Clients will have gone through 3 people before they get to the agent, people who tell them we are Medicare. The commercials are bait and are misleading. I went in with such high hopes to succeed in the company, but there are so many hands in your pockets that even if you sell your butt off, you don't make nearly enough as you can elsewhere. If you go to SelectQuote, read every single word of every single document you sign, possibly have a lawyer read it too... Because if you sign that dotted line, they own you, your clients and all of your commission if you choose to leave. Oh and also, for a company that sells insurance, for a family of 4 your insurance is basically one whole paycheck.
