Pros

Many levels at non-bonus levels allow for many opportunities to improve position and salary. Still "pay for performance" and I am OK with that.

Cons

Once you get to the first bonus level that opportunities are few and far between as the organization continues to flatten to flatten out.

Claims Adjuster-Auto

Pros

Compensation and benefits are above average for claims adjusters. PTO time is generous and having a pension and a 401K is great. Pay ranges from $36000 to $80000 for adjusters based on skill and time in service.

Cons

More work than people to do it. No opportunity to move around in the company once you reach a certain salary so you become stuck in a position and can never get out. Allstate would rather hire someone with no experience off the street for $36000 than transfer someone making $60000 to an lateral opening. Promotional opportunities are not great and you usually have to be very mobile to take advantage of them. Lots of favoritism and minorities have a better chance at promotions as well. This company is stuck in processes that do not make a lot of sense and change takes forever as home office takes forever to sign off on anything. Adjusters are so specialized that customers have to talk to 4 different people to just settle their claim. Training is minimal and does not always address all you need to know.

Pros

Provides work from home opportunities and has a lot of Paid time off. May be used as a stepping stone to a better organization.

Cons

Political environment. Career paths don't exist for the most part. Good luck finding your way. If you are looking to build skills on the job good luck on that one too. Opportunities are scarce. Human resources that won't help you in your quest to grow. They are good at screening you out for positions.
