Pros
Great place to get your feet wet as a Medicare agent. The company has great health benefits. You can make 6 figures within your first year if you’re willing to work hard for it.
Kontras
In early 2021 many people in management left the company within a few weeks, which lowered the environment moral. Managers and employees are not treated well, and being an agent feels like walking on egg shells due to the fact that they are consistently being given conflicting guidance and instructions. One of the directors does not have Medicare telesales experience but yet makes decisions that impact agents, and 2/3 managers for one of eHealth’s regions do not have solid grasp on Medicare knowledge. The company has town halls that put a false positive spin on company issues and fail to address other company issues. Be cautious about the hype. Another con is that there is a lack of career development for agents. To move up, you may have to take a pay cut or grow in an area that isn’t clearly defined.
