Pros

There are none. They will promise you the world and in the end, you will have less than

Cons

You know those get rich quick schemes that come on TV late at night. The ones that "guarantee" you will be able to go from rich to poor in 3 weeks. That's pretty much how I would describe the lies told by Reserve National, during the hiring process. They manipulate agents into believing they can make more money than they know what to do with: retire early and buy a private island. Do NOT be deceived by the manipulative tactics of the hiring team. Unfortunately, Reserve National's compensation statistics are only for the top 1%. There is ZERO base pay. Pay is solely commission based. As an agent, you will be responsible for ALL fuel spent driving hours a day to meet potential clients. You will only receive a check from Reserve IF you happen to actually sell a policy. A very difficult task do to underwriting policies and costs. Say you visit 12 people in a week and only 1 purchases a policy. You will only be compensated for that 1 client. The other client consultations were a waste of your gas money... and time. Please, have more self respect and do not work for Reserve National. It was an unnecessary learning experience for myself. Oh, and they do not offer any benefits. Not even health insurance for their own employees. #SCAM

Pay and benefits, supportive coworkers, opportunities to develop critical thinking, communication, and investigation skills. The role provided valuable experience in handling complex claims and making coverage and liability decisions.

Cons

High caseloads and demanding workloads can make it challenging to maintain work life balance. The job can be stressful at times due to deadlines, customer expectations, and the volume of claims.
