Pros

Farmers Insurance Group has a great training process for new agents. Not only working directly with the Assistant GM to get all your qualifications, but they will invest in you and send you to CA for Farmers University training where you can bounce ideas off new agents all over the country. They truly want you to succeed. Compensation is unlimited paralleled with the work you put into the job. It truly is a numbers game, you have to keep cold calling from good or bad leads.

Cons

Once trained, as a new agent you are building a book of business from scratch. You are selling a product that everyone needs, yet the customers that are upstanding citizens with assets you are trying to insure/write policies on have existing insurance and the only reason to switch to Farmers is price. Other than that, you are chasing after smaller customers for legal minimum coverage on auto policies and possibly renters insurance. Same as above: It truly is a numbers game, you have to keep cold calling from good or bad leads.

Pros

Work from home, make your own hours, fun claim types, starts off with great PTO allotment and you have access to all your hours from the moment you start with an extra week after five years

Cons

Good luck with your diaries if you use the PTO. You will come back with overdue items. The way they have their PTO backup system setup is two backup people for the whole department. There is too much work for them so they don't get to much while you are out. Usually voicemails. You can' schedule anything for while you are gone, all your claims have to wait for you to return. The amount of new claims a week has drastically increased and it isn't sustainable. They do expect you to work more than your 40 hours or recommend that you find a different job that isn't a salary position, PTO calendars are always red with blackout dates. Supervisors and the manager don't listen to actionable items presented to make the department better. The attrition is bad, but they continue to tell us we are fully staffed because our diaries aren't that bad yet. Adjusters are dropping like flies but won't hire anymore. Not sure if that comes from senior leadership or direct leadership. Ever since Jeff Dailey left, we are just numbers. No one cares about us anymore and it is evident.
