Pros

1000 new jobs for Kansas City - Now if only we can stop the high turnover of hundreds leaving the company in the past year so that this promise becomes reality. But no worries, all is well as long as we can stay ahead just enough to keep our Tax deal with Kansas City! Brand new modern office - Essential given how many hours you will spend here instead of home if you plan to hit the pay they made sound easy while recruiting. But hey who cares what your hourly pay averages out to be when you get free coffee and ping pong!!!! Easy to find a manager - We don't let record high turnover slow down promotions at SVG! Plenty of managers floating around if you need help (unless you come in to work before 9am). And even though 75% of the teams never make it to goal you will still find these managers have plenty of time to give you one on one attention. UNLIMITED LEADS - No caps on lead consumption!! SVG makes it a high priority to repurchase the same leads over and over so you will never be left without something to dial. And don't worry about how many times you strike out or hit a home run. Our proprietary system of distributing leads doesn't care about your long term track record of performance. You could be an amazing agent or horrible but all that matters to SVG is what you have sold in the past 14 days. NO COLD CALLING - These leads are 100% Fresh. Never frozen! We do have a large volume of customers that say they got bait and switched by marketing but that is just a stiff arm that a good salesperson can easily overcome. Focus on the important facts. If the customer is breathing, a U.S. Citizen, and 65 or older you should be able to sell them. Open Communication - The managers are great at communicating... with each other. And that is what is most important. Less communication to agents than ever frees you up to focus on dialing. As an agent you will love the fact that they no longer want or need your input as they already know what is best and how to fix the company issues without troubling us for feedback. RECORD BREAKING 2018!!! - In 2018 we set a record for lowest number of agents to hit quota, lowest number of teams to achieve goal, lowest policy retention rate ever, highest voluntary turnover ever, and least amount of quotes per agent per day EVER! Doesn't it feel great to be a part of a company that is record breaking!!?? Unassailable Value Proposition - In theory anyways. Bright side is that most customers will never know that we now push some carriers, like Aetna, above all others. Plus the company smartly censors the carriers and rates shown on our quote engine so you don't have to feel bad by finding out far better options are often available for the customer. Increase in Base pay and Referral pay for 2019! - We now get paid more per hour and more for referral sales than ever before. Don't get caught up in the math that you make less per policy on Supplement, Dental, and Critical Illness policies now. This is still a win regardless of if it adds up to you needing to sell more than ever to make the same.

Cons

Can't think of any at the moment. Would have said more coffee flavors needed but they covered that in a recent all company survey. Keep covering the important stuff like that and I will be a very happy employee!

Employee Insurance, and benefits are terrible,Unrealistic quotas, low pay for the amount of work required, misleading leads, and upper management that appears disconnected from and unconcerned about the challenges sales agents deal with daily.
