Pros

Good salary and benefits, work/life balance is decent.

Cons

Company direction is misguided at best. The commitment to an expensive Agency model will make SF the Sears of the insurance industry. Company also celebrates “activity” over results: as long as you can make it sound good, there will be plenty of “pats on the back” even when no end result was demonstrated.

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
