Pros

Great products behind a strong company name make our job a lot easier. Allstate is an innovator regarding products and offers a strong range of products from Property and Causaulty to Financial Services. A great way to develop and grow relationships with clients, Allstate Agents give comfort and sound advice to those with insurance needs.

We represent our insureds on a daily basis, whether it's simply making a payment, or rebuilding a home lost to fire. We believe in our motto, that with Allstate, You're in good hands!

Cons

Depending on your personal situation, and I'm speaking on behalf of Exclusive Agents, health benefits are not avalable by the company. While you can still find good coverages out there, Allstate doesn't provide this for the Agent. An Agency requires a balence of service and sales. This can sometimes become rigorous if not properly staffed or unexpierenced. Sometimes the claim process can be frustrating. It's hard to name downsides to working at Allstate because each person/agency has their own strengths and weaknesses. For the most part, it is an office job, so people who enjoy being outdoors often during the day may become restless.

Pros

Work from home There are some school programs paid at 100%

Cons

- I haven't been micromanage this bad since working in a call center!!! - the tools you use to do your job feels like micromanagement. Its very slow moving as well. Every thing takes so long to load while you're trying to speed through your work. - you will receive an email about every single little thing you did wrong - you will not receive praise for anything - you will need to protect yourself by maintaining documentation of what was asked of you, because it will be later explained that it doesn't matter what was said, you should have researched it yourself (even when you're brand new). - when they are wronf about a reprimand they just gave you, don't expect a reply or an apology - they will make sudden changes that severely impacts your job at a moments notice and wonder why you are behind - I was advised a manageable workload is 20-30 claims. My whole team had 90+ claims. - The turn over rate is exceptionally high. Over the course of a year I started 7 people quit within. 3 additional people were fired. - you're going to beg for help and they aren't going to help you, and they are going to tell you that YOU are the problem. - currently, all the hires are being shielded from the hot mess. They are trying to change things by pushing all the people who suffered through the mess they created to put a positive spin on the job and I guess preserve moral. - the job itself wouldnt be difficult (because the work is relatively easy), but its VERY disorganized. You will feel like you work in a call center, but this time, you have to return voicemails, emails and text messages. - 2nd worse job experience in my entire life - AND THE PAY IS BELOW INDUSTTY STANDARDS!!! There are no bonuses.
