      I have been working at Primerica full-time for more than 4 years

      Pros

      Have been both corporate and a Business owner in the past, this is the SINGLE best personal development program with a high back-end compensation package I have ever seen. If you - work hard - follow their proven steps - honestly put families first they will reward you.

      Cons

      Here is the rub for most people: This is NOT a job! Its an opportunity to provide for yourself and your family! And some people are just not disciplined in their own lives to take advantage of this type of opportunity. You cannot coast or be a wallflower. (Sorry, if you want a do-nothing, hourly wage job, this is not for you. They do not pay people who do not excel at their craft. But then again, who wants...

      I have been working at Primerica part-time for more than 4 years

      Pros

      Company pays licenses, trains you for free, let’s you start right away after licensed, have no neopatism clause(allows you to work with anyone including family), has support to help you finish business and amazing software, pays agents quickly and honest about payment structure and partners with trustworthy companies. Without financial equity allows you to become an owner. Best business ever!!!

      Cons

      Some agents don’t understand it can be a great business opportunity and think they can work this like a job.

      Advice to Management

      Keep up the good work!!! Love this company!! Keep the good reimbursement coming!!!

      Pros

      Compensation, flexibility, excellent home office support, paid licenses (insurance and investments), strong history of success within the industry

      Cons

      You have to have a GREAT work ethic and have enough motivation to complete the licensing process. All of the tools are in place for people to win but a lot of people do not have the drive necessary to be successful

      Advice to Management

      Keep up the great work!

      -Backed by a great support team and a platform of companies that want to help middle class Americans improve their current situation. -Compensation is like no other firm -They have heart for the people in the company as well as their clients

      Cons

      -You get paid for the effort you put in. If you don't work Primerica won't work, if you don't get licensed you wont get paid! Simple as that

      Cons

      NONE ! Still thinking, none. Just work. Businesses make income purely off commission.

      Advice to Management

      What are people saying??? We don’t con people of $124 — The company makes you responsible for a background check and course, while $124 Is still a JOKE! Primerica should charge more. To get started in your own business and get sponsored for license that cost anywhere from $2,000-$4,000! Most people don’t fully understand what we do and don’t understand business, but it’s okay. So happy I was able to help my friends and...
