Pros

You can learn a lot and most agents will pay for you to get your licenses. Those are licenses that you can take with you when you move to another company. There are a lot of employees that stay with State Farm for life but most are not college graduates.

Cons

Find a way to utalize your higher level staff. If you are a college graduate there is no where for you to go unless you put down huge amounts of capital for your own franchise. The biggest con is that agent staffers have little advancement opportunity.

Pros

(At the time) Fair pay and predictable bonus structure They were pretty good at covering travel expenses and paying them back quickly Diverse workforce & diversity initiatives Fun and funny coworkers Opportunities for growth Again, this was all four years ago and has likely changed

Cons

(At the time and now, according to other comments) Arrogant to a fault Total lack of innovation & willingness to innovate Odd attachment to the company's past (which prevents progress) High number of veterans (20+ years) who are determined to get that retirement money, and therefore, are resistant to change and technology Heavy reliance on command and control management style Poor decision-making that leads to losses of all kinds
