Vantaggi

-The training was pretty good. -For a "just above" entry level job the pay was good and included basic health insurance. -Most (but not all) of the managment staff are very friendly and believe that all members of staff be treated alike.

Svantaggi

-The telesales equipment provided was a shambles. -When you came to work and take your seat you'd be lucky if it wasn't leaning to the side or missing the back. - Headsets were awful, most of them were missing the mic tube, so your potential sales target heard everything int he background and very little of you. Management just ignored the problem if you mentioned it to them. -Sales targets are tricky to achieve, hence the massive staff turn-around. - If another member of staff wanted to get higher scores they'd mark a failed sales call as "was not at home". This meant you'd end up calling an already irate customer and if honest would mark it as failed sale if like the previous sales person mark it as "was not at home". Not a very good work ethic.

Vantaggi

Great atmosphere, almost like family ... until a buyout from an overseas insurance conglomerate, AEGON Insurance Group, completely submerged the culture into a coercive nightmare and suspect business model. Then they absorbed Stonebridge Life into Transamerica Insurance Co. Before that occurred, the pace was reasonable and I loved my coworkers and most of the managers.

Svantaggi

They made some staffing decisions that, in my opinion, tanked an entire business unit. Particularly in regard to the product development strategy. They started creating these ridiculous products with an absurdly low value proposition for a high monthly premium. As I expected, nobody bought the product.. Then they tried to patch it up, but the attempt was feeble and they extinguished a couple of products in this way. They never listened to employees and made all their decisions from Baltimore. It was excruciating to watch.
