Take these for what you will, but they do illustrate some of the potential problems. If you look at their sales system/structure, their people work almost (if not entirely) on commission... the way they handle their employees, you can't help but wonder about the quality of the product...





i was almost suckered into becoming an 'employee' of primerica...back in oct last yr they began a big recruiting campaign in up in the high desert where i was staying...i was wasting away on a bench in the mall while g/f shopped when i was approached...me being very out of work jumped at the chance to begin on the ground floor of a new company in the area and set up an appt for the guy to come to the house...after thinking on it a few days i called the guy and left a message on his voice mail that i had changed my mind (thinking he was coming out to sell me a service when all i was interested in was a job)...

when i talked to him he assured me he was offering employment...so he comes out and gives me a boatload of pamphlets and crap and the points out in one of them where it says "we dont have employees...."...so i ask "does this mean there is no salary?" and he says yes...ALL COMMISSION...blah blah blah u can make $$$$ just a few hrs a week...how many people do you think would you could bring in as customers...screw neighbors he wanted friends and family

bottom line he was trying to open an office and needed grunts under him to eat up a chunk of their commission and rake in the big dough for himself...a not so well hidden airplane scheme or whatever its called...

i wouldn't 'work' for them and i certainly wouldn't do business with them...only thing they work for is commission and most probably have no incentive to give u a good rate on any service

i put him off til after xmas then told him to get lost
