Pros

I work in an agent's office and it really varies from agency to agency...I've heard some nightmare stories from other employees but my eperience has been overall a positive one. The rates are relatively competitive so generally morale is pretty good, and we offer a ton of products (almost 160 at last count?) so every agency should be able to find a niche.

Cons

The company is going through a lot of changes right now and I'm not sure if they're for the good. In order to cut operating costs the regional office performance has TANKED compared to two years ago. Also if you're working for an agent that has been around awhile expect zero help from state farm corporate because they get paid a higher commission than the new guys.

Pros

(At the time) Fair pay and predictable bonus structure They were pretty good at covering travel expenses and paying them back quickly Diverse workforce & diversity initiatives Fun and funny coworkers Opportunities for growth Again, this was all four years ago and has likely changed

Cons

(At the time and now, according to other comments) Arrogant to a fault Total lack of innovation & willingness to innovate Odd attachment to the company's past (which prevents progress) High number of veterans (20+ years) who are determined to get that retirement money, and therefore, are resistant to change and technology Heavy reliance on command and control management style Poor decision-making that leads to losses of all kinds
