Thank you for your feedback. We take your concerns seriously and would like more information. New York Life, re-affirmed on Fortune World’s Most Admired Company list in the Life Insurance category for 2021, has over 175 years of history helping provide financial security for millions of families. Most families are underinsured, and few people have defined benefit pension plans anymore. We distribute products that help meet both those needs. Like most organizations there is a hierarchy, and our Career Agency System ensures our policy holders come first. Please contact our Ethics Hotline, which provides an anonymous way to report your concerns, at (888) 331-0619 or at https://secure.ethicspoint.com/domain/media/en/gui/23192/index.html

Pros

Right out of college, I had an opportunity with the New York Life. Being young I felt that I was at a disadvantage but I worked hard, I was relentless, and ambitious. My first full year, I was able to make a six-figure income. It wasn't easy but is medical school easy? Is law school easy? The training and development at New York Life was unmatched. I knew nothing about the Insurance and Financial Services industry until I was given an opportunity at New York Life and the training was exceptional and has led me to the success I have today.

Cons

You have to work hard, be relentless, entrepreneurial, invest a lot of time and effort into the business and above all, expect a higher standard of living and strive towards that goal every single day.
