Pyramid Scheme - Insurance Agent New York Life Employee Review

Thanks for your feedback. Our agents are compensated for the work through commissions. Being commission based puts you in control of how much you make, which can be both exciting and challenging. In addition, we offer competitive benefits, as well as a defined benefit pension plan that makes our compensation package one of the best in the industry. During the hiring process, we are sure to provide specific detail on how our commission based structure works.For the first 3 years of an agent’s career, a manager is responsible for providing training, mentorship and support to help their agents succeed on their own. After this period, our agents are encouraged to have an entrepreneurial and independent mindset and proceed as if they are responsible with establishing their own financial services practice. We like to think of our agents as being in business “for themselves but not by themselves.” For this reason, this career is not for everyone.
