Stressful yet with Manulife itself, it is the best!The good thingsDuring our training days, everything went well. The training team is very friendly and professional. But when you were endorsed to your branch, stress and quota starts. Some knowledge from your training will not be able to apply in your real state in bank. For me and maybe some of FSAs have difficulty with some bank staff relationship. Some are very indifferent to FSA. They will make you feel you are not part of the bank. Some bank staff are very hard to approach and not that supportive to give leads. Manulife itself is a competitive company and I am thankful for all the benefits they have given to us especially during COVID days. I hope the management will also look into the leads generation especially with the bank partner. To make other bank branch partners be competitive enough and have a harmonious relationship with FSAs since it is a joint venture. It's good if your branch is very competitive with you since you will also receive incentives like VPAY or even travel incentives. This is a stressful work ,but since you're in sales, it is normal thing. However, sometimes it makes more stressful is with your branch relationship since they are the ones who will give you hot leads. Good thing that my branch is just near my residence. Lastly, with my co-area FSAs and Area Manager they are fun to be with and nice.
