As I am sure you know, PE is much more technical. As long as you can carry over the knowledge on how to gauge an attractive company, it will be beneficial. Captain obvious here, doing an industrial LBO is very different than analyzing growth potential for a SaaS company, so make sure you understand how technology companies are evaluated.

Is it common in the industry for licensed insurance agents to not get any commissions on a referral in which you personally write the policy? Ex: If a current client refers a prospect to our team, I would not receive commission. Additionally, if I write a policy for friends/family I would get a small incentive but it’s a fraction of the commission producers make.
Management is considering changing this going forward. However, I’m not sure how I should react if they keep things how they are now.
