Vantaggi

State Farm has good training regimens. The State Farm agent really wants you to succeed mainly because that is how they are compensated from the corporate office. Corporate sends out newsletters to keep their employees abreast of company issues. There was an opportunity for me to be promoted to selling financial services, but once I realized the sales would come from cold calls only, I declined.

Svantaggi

Very low pay and no benefits. I was working on commission only which is not a smart thing to agree to if you are just starting out as an insurance salesman. I did not like only making cold calls. You could rarely even get an appointment with prospective buyers much less a sell.

Vantaggi

(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

Svantaggi

(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
