Pros

Coming from Empowered, we are still enjoying a somewhat flexible schedule, the benefits are great, the pay is good.

Cons

I am really getting sick of hearing "Aflac is not a tech company". No doubt, but they bought a tech company, so they need to learn to adapt as much as we need to learn to adapt to red tape. Our development progress has slowed down tremendously, simply because access to our core infrastructure has been moved to other teams and now what used to take us 15 minutes to fix ourselves takes days or even weeks to fix because of all the bureaucracy.

Pros

Freedom to be your own boss, trips, bonuses, renewable income (instead of one time commission), career instead of just a job. FORTUNE 500 and a World's most Ethical Company. Great training (at least here in Wyoming) and a family mentality. Great family/work balance.

Cons

No base pay, can be a slow start at first, you have to be very organized and self-driven, have to be licensed in life and health to sell insurance (but my management help with the process).
