Pros

The work life balance at new york life is great. The hours in some departments are 8-4 or 9-5 and nobody looks at you cross-eyed when you leave, because they believe in the actual hours. It is the company you keep.

Cons

Promotion is arbitrary, even among the high achievers. It's an old line company that takes a long time to move things forward.

Pros

great product training, great product knowledge

Cons

no maketing assistance. company leads that are worse than leads purchased from internet sites. no leadership. An air of simply churning out agents in order to get most amount of premium and then not have to pay residuals (as they've upset agent so much the agent leaves company).

Pros

New York Life provided me with meaningful work from the outset. The work life balance was very good. Excellent work environment.

Cons

Opportunities for advancement and feedback were limited. Compensation was low compared with other companies. Management seemed somewhat out of touch.
