Pros

Looks good on your resume to say you worked for fortune 500 company

Cons

At A-O it does not matter how you perform rather, it's how influence peddlers think you perform. No management by objectives at A-O. Without profit centers, budgets and measurements that are objective good people are subjected below par recognition and rewards. A very small middle-aged professional class at A-O. If you are not tapped for an officer level position their is little other path to career fulfillment and a professional level of compensation. Especially tough on people who move to Lansing and only later discover both their economic status and career options are both in deep peril.

Pros

Auto-Owners is still one of the few companies to provide employee pensions and the medical benefits package is better than average. Additionally, they offer a great relocation package and there are plenty of opportunities to relocate around the country. The company also pays for insurance-related classes and provides bonuses for completion of a large number of series of courses.

Cons

Base salary is below-average and the workload can be excessive at times. Be careful of who you upset because memories die hard.

Pros

Best reason to work at AO is to gain experience at a fortune 500 company so you can make more money somewhere else.

Cons

inflexible, slow to change, lower pay than most other places, pay based on years worked not ability or job performance.
