"I just started at Aflac not long ago. They value employees, their ethics, and always doing the right thing by the customer all the time. Aflac provides lots of training and benefits to undergrad/graduate degree seeking employees. Their EAW Employee Appreciation Week is insane. Every month I look forward to some cool thing Aflac is doing for their employees, customers, and public. They are a great example of a corporation that is profitable and still takes care of the important things that help them succeed."
"I've worked for Aflac for 11 years and couldn't be more happy with what I do, and what my company stands for. AFLAC is the best thing that has ever happened to me. It's given me more that I ever though a 'job' could."
"I began an internship with Aflac in my senior year of college. It is a commission based job that involves a lot of time on the phones or on the streets trying to get leads and build your business. There is a chance to make money in this profession but you have to be willing to be poor for the first few months. It takes time to build up your clientele. This is a position that takes a lot of your time starting out and requires that you have thick skin because you will get hung up on and cussed at by people."
"Great products. Great potential for compensation. Great training. Great incentive packages."
"Aflac offers great products and benefits to the policy holders. But, the Independent Agents are expected to purchase many items and software from Aflac to be able to perform their duties and that becomes very expensive. Agents don't receive enough compensation for all the work they do and all the expenses they incur. It's expensive to work at Aflac!"
"Sales Associate for 6 months. Unless you are able to have no income for a year and can live with less than $30000 annually for 2 years move on."
"The products that Aflac offers are incomparable in the Insurance Industry and the initial training that you go through is great, but in the end it comes down to poor management, no guidance, but the expectation of the world. The office that I worked in was so clique-y that it made advancement and being able to run your business almost impossible. Training can only do so much and can only help you when it's once for your whole career and you need the support and direction of good management."
"The training for this job was at best sub par. This company is a great company but I was promised help in training and also building my book of business."
"Amazing career, allowed me to reach my financial and life dreams and enjoy flexability of schedule and work life balance. Love my co workers and ability to move up."
"You are just a number to them. Agents move in and out like a revolving door. Very little if any support. If you have a license and apply for the job you got it but don't expect anything else. All agents in a big room with a telephone and worked over lists where you call and most hang up. Just want your contacts."
"My experience with Aflac is horrible at the moment but it could get better after the holidays."
"While working with Aflac as an Agent, I enjoy helping Americans with support that they need. The training was less than optimal. I understand that everyone was independent business owners, but no one was there from the beginning to walk you through to make sure you did things right. They expected you to rehearse in front of the other agents and that was enough training. It makes for an awkward moment when the client knows you are unsure of what you are saying because you not trained right."
"There was a lack of cohesion between the management and the employees as to how our days would be scheduled. There was no breakdown of territories and at best you were given a phone book and told to start calling. The lack of support in lead generation was frustrating to say the least."
"Aflac is a great company to work for in the insurance industry. However sales can be a volatile profession. If this is your career choice, the product sells itself. Plus you are given plenty of support and tools to be successful."
