Pros

Agla offers a starting salary for 17 weeks (very minimum salary), great benefits (little pricey), FANTASTIC products for life and supplemental health (competitive prices and great coverage), (annuities are useless), Flexible work schedule, Executive management appears to be very top class (from what we get to know), full office set up provided, all supplies furnished, underwriting for the most part is great few mistakes here and there. Nice incentive trips if you qualify. Computer provided for writing apps (business use only), Some existing clients to work with, not to say you dont have to do a lot of cold calling, but some help.Overall just another average insurance sales job and getting more so everyday.

Cons

Sporatic micromanagement, nothing consistant, (one week your a business person the next your a child reporting your every move), 100% commission after 17 weeks salary, bonus' are paid on production levels and persistancy. Highly unattainable and seriously fluctuating, compensation plan that is very complicated. Mid-Management is highly incompetent..nothing more than task masters, push, push, push. Management by intimidation rather than motivation or inspiration. "What have you done for me lately" mentality. High turnover. No set guidelines or requirements for promotions, contest, or recognition. It varies from district to district. There are no set Company rules for these. Mostly "who you know". Lots of promises..little delivery. Contest promoted, you push and win...no payout. You must have a lot of contacts (100+) before you start. You are required to call family, friends and all contacts to sell them insurance. Quality leads are not provided. They do offer a flexible schedule, however if you want to follow their "plan for success", that if you follow you should be successful, now that requires 80 hrs per week.
