Pros

If and that is if you can get agency to buy into the fact that you have experience that they don't have time to learn given there primary goal is auto and home then you can create a good income handling the financial end for tgem.

Cons

Allstate employees are always undermining the partnerships you create with your 1098 agents... If there is any problem at all they thrive on sticking a knife in your back... The men are degrading to female 1099 financial reps and Allstate could care less... This position could be a good thing if Allstate staff would learn to help instead of destroy and defame there 1099 staff... It's just sad... Go on line and look at there law suits.. They don't care about you ...

Pros

If you have a good agent owner who is successful it will be a better place to work at than a newer start up agency. People know Allstate (even though expensive)

Cons

No benefits for employees other than agent owners. Allstate's website makes it appear they offer benefits but do not. They combine commission and pay which put you in a higher tax bracket and lose out of most of commissions. They raise rates often here in NY making it impossible to get renewals. New home quote screen now takes 45 mins to complete and then find out our prices are not even close. Technology is awful and always crashing or not working. Every single day I have been at Allstate there was a technology issue. They own esurance but won't use their technology to speed up submissions. they show discounts for clients that do not apply. Underwriting is slow, not so helpful and cause more problems that I the messenger have to tell the customer. I have had more problems caused by underwriting that they have been helpful as some of them are not sure themselves. Corporate handled a transfer of business poorly and due to no communication from home office clients went to other companies and was out of my control to even call them. No one picks up landlines and guidelines are too strict.
