Pros

Better than sleeping in my car using a big smelly dog for a pillow.

Cons

Many quality employees have given years to this company in hope of becoming permanent but have been passed over for less qualified, less experienced people with connections. System issues are a plague and the more the IT dept tries to tweak the systems, the more they screw things up. When WTW acquired this company, they promised things would change. They did. It's worse. Supervisors and managers are not held accountable for some of the stupid things they say and do. The non-retaliation policy is a joke. Many employees with lousy supervisors are afraid to take issues such as harassment or incompetence to HR because of vindictive supervisors and managers. There is no consistent doctrine between supervisors and every time we go to a new team we have to learn new rules and procedures, some of which are just plain wrong. And we change teams way too often. Pay is touted as "above industry standard." No, it's not. Maybe if they're referring to the telemarketing industry--and this is not a telemarketing job. We are, or at least are supposed to be, insurance professionals and should be paid more for the complex job that we do.

Pros

Learning everything about Life insurance, annuities and health

Cons

They are quite two-faced. Thry gas you up thinking you are doing well then turn around and terminate you for any slight. For instance---you must be on camera during training but we were told if we were sick or not feeling too well, we can ask for accomodation. With the understanding that it would be taken into consideration. Well...it isnt. They throw it back in your face. They do not like criticism. Say something wrong, you're done. They listen in on the classes and even if they think you said something the complete opposite of what was said and taken out of context, they do not care about the truth for you bruised their ego. Do not believe them when they tell you you are doing good during training. Its more about how much you want to be under WTW's influence. In other words, NO CRITICISM IS ALLOWED. I would write more but this should suffice.
