I am thinking about a job change, I am currently working at an insurance broker, making around $62,000 I have been here for 9 years, I do not have health ins or a retirement no cost of living raise or anything I look ahead 5 years from now and see I am in the same spot mabe making $65,000 Maybe the boss I work for is very very cheap, he droped my xmas bonus by $300 last year so he could give his son the same as me he has only been her 1 year. I am 42 years old and a single mom a son 15 daugther 7, I do have a license for what I do. The company I am thinking about moving to is similar, they do Health Insurance I would have to get another license which is good but it is sales, they pay you as you write policies, if you write 1 you get paid the very next week they have a retirement that is funded by them and you are fully vested in 10 years the name of the company is Cornerstone America, the person I did the interview with made $90,000 last year, I am thinking well the least I could do is make what I am making but if I wanted to make more I could please let me know what you think.
A quick google search of 'Cornerstone America' will show you that many people felt they were scammed and lied too about this job. It sounds fanastic in print, but the truth that is a a bit like those informercials on TV in the sense that 'Results May Vary.'
Google it yourself, and read what people have had to say about this company. I think that will open your eyes to thier deceptive practices best.
By all means, look for another job. It sounds like you are undervalued at your current one and the manager is a bit shaddy. Just remember that when something looks too good to be true, it probably is. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
