Pros

- Nice people - Nice culture - Work from home opportunities2 days a week - Work can be interesting sometimes - Good pension

Cons

- Micromanagement - Advised they want quality over quantity then consistently push numbers of calls or live chats. - Some days feel like a glorified call centre as you are sitting waiting for calls or live chats all day. - They advised progression could be available for anyone with potential from day 1 however this has not occurred whilst being at the company. Everyone who started together are being progressed roughly at the same time and others who have been here longer are having progression stunted. Only maximum of 2 days at home per week when everyone has proven they can do the job just as well or better at home however management won't allow more than 2 days. - Pay is lower compared to others in same industry - Some brokers can be rude or pushy making for some stressful times
