RecommendsNeutral OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at New York Life full-time for more than a year
Pros
- Provides plenty of experts to help you succeed at your job - Motivating and understanding work environment - Plenty of room for growth and job opportunities once you achieve your sales numbers - Communicative - They do not take away TAS payments (stipends) even if your sales are canceled which does not happen at all other life insurance companies/ wealth management firms.
Cons
- pay is not steady though this is expected - you will not succeed if you do not actively work on your own - your experience at this company is based on who your managers are so I can have a great time working there because I love the supportive environment, but if you go to a different office, you may not vibe as well with your managers so be careful before you sign the dotted line. All the managers and employees that I've met at other New York Life offices are really nice and accommodating though.
