Gerber Life Reviews

It doesn't matter if you're in sales or service- you're in sales. The targets seem reasonable on the surface (in service), but if you get out of the habit of asking people if they're interested in discussing additional coverage at the end of EVERY call you will not meet your targets. If you don't meet your targets, you will have an increasingly unhappy manager, and you might eventually be fired- even if you're exceeding expectations in every other metric they have. The fringe benefits are great, but the wages could be higher based on the amount of mental stress the job puts people through.

Very strict on attendance, management looks for excuses to fire people they don't like, advancement not based on experience but on how well you get along with management. the corporate culture is very threatening. no overall overt threats are made but are implied on a daily basis. If you see someone who is being unethical and alert management, instead of investigating the situation, everything the person who gave the alert is gone over with a fine toothed comb first. they have a "people helping people" form that is to be filled out monthly (on your own time) to basically tattle on others in the building over trivial things but gross violations of osha within the sales buildings are constantly ignored. If you have an issue with a rule (which the "rules" change on an almost daily basis and change according to who they are applied to) and speak to your manager for clarification, you are told you are "not a team player" and if you don't like what is going on "there is the door" it's no wonder they can't keep staff long enough to have them fully trained, policy holders regularly face 20+ minute hold times with 50+ minutes occurring with alarming regularity.
