Pros

Can make good commission, but need to work the minimum expectation of 10 hour days.

Cons

Cult like sales environment, Terrible management. I was a top rep, but was let go when I told them I was pregnant. So I sued them, and won! Selling Disability Insurance but then when UNUM should be paying valid claims, they make it so difficult for the claimant, to avoid paying anything, which is sad as these claimants became disabled, and are not well. So UNUM preys on that, to try to give up and drop their claim. Unethical claims department. Probably my worst selling experience, ever!

Pros

Strong work-life balance, supportive leadership, and a collaborative culture that feels more people-focused than many large corporations. Hybrid flexibility, solid benefits, and long-term stability make it a great place to build a career. There are also good opportunities for internal growth and cross-functional experience.

Cons

Decision-making can sometimes move slowly due to layers of process and approvals. Compensation may not always be as competitive as larger tech-focused companies, and organizational changes or transformation initiatives can occasionally create ambiguity or shifting priorities. Like many large enterprises, bureaucracy can at times impact speed and innovation.
