Pluspunten

Paid to study for insurance exams, company paid for insurance license, nice office environment, some good managers, nice co-workers, cafeteria on-site

Minpunten

Paid training for licensing exams consists of self-study and not much instruction. Training for job duties is too light and is mostly on the job training to the detriment of the clients you are supposed to assist. A lot of the "experts" supposed to help you seemed to be thrown in their role and are winging it. Many managers lack leadership and communication skills and seem to be thrown in their jobs. Much of your time you spend being the bad guy, not resolving clients' issues but skirting around them, like denying coverage due to technicalities. Departments seem to be pieced together with no organization. "Experts" contradict each other all of the time. Political conflicts between Norwood and Urbandale offices that prevent you from getting job done.

Pluspunten

Remote flexibility, which is nice.

Minpunten

You will not get a raise and if you do, it'll be 1%. Managers will not help you with escalating issues, you're on your own. It'll be blamed on you. You'll work so much overtime you won't have a social life.
