Vantaggi

Being in business for your self and by yourself... Always have the life insurance requirements hanging over your head too... Wait - those are cons too!

Svantaggi

As a farmers agent you have the privilege of paying to get licensed and start up expenses so that you can sell their increasingly expensive policies. Costs will add up as customers churn out the door due to 60+% rate increases over the last few years while you sit through meetings telling you how you have to spend more on marketing (their way). Eventually you get tired of the cycle and Farmers sends you to collections for the lack of ability to immediately pay back all of your subsidy. Be an independent agent or at least start as a producer for an IA so you learn the industry first.

Vantaggi

Work from home, make your own hours, fun claim types, starts off with great PTO allotment and you have access to all your hours from the moment you start with an extra week after five years

Svantaggi

Good luck with your diaries if you use the PTO. You will come back with overdue items. The way they have their PTO backup system setup is two backup people for the whole department. There is too much work for them so they don't get to much while you are out. Usually voicemails. You can' schedule anything for while you are gone, all your claims have to wait for you to return. The amount of new claims a week has drastically increased and it isn't sustainable. They do expect you to work more than your 40 hours or recommend that you find a different job that isn't a salary position, PTO calendars are always red with blackout dates. Supervisors and the manager don't listen to actionable items presented to make the department better. The attrition is bad, but they continue to tell us we are fully staffed because our diaries aren't that bad yet. Adjusters are dropping like flies but won't hire anymore. Not sure if that comes from senior leadership or direct leadership. Ever since Jeff Dailey left, we are just numbers. No one cares about us anymore and it is evident.
