Pros

Some of the best reasons to work for Farmers Insurance Group is the opportunity to start your own business, be your own boss, compensation and benefits. Since you are your own business owner you can write everything off as a business expense for your taxes.

Cons

I don't feel management was up front with all the details of starting your own insurance company because there are hidden fees that they don't tell you about. They would say that it's ok because you get a subsidy each month. But if you have a bad month and don't reach the level of sales to cover it. They could terminate your contract and force you to pay back every month of subsidy you recived. It's a either a win/lose situation. You could have a great career or find yourself in the hole.

Pros

This is an good stepping stone into insurance. They will pay for your INS courses as well as pay for your continuing education. At this moment you work 40 hour weeks m-f. Start time is primarily based on performance.

Cons

I work in a call center primarily servicing Independent Farmers Insurance Agents. They emphasis the #'s, productivity, sticking your assigned schedule, and you have to make sure you cover your back and make sure you're doing your job. Those of the service center agree we have regressed to elementary school because of the way we are treated. You have to pay more for your health care benefits, no more profit sharing, and we've transitioned to PTO. We're no longer able to accumulate our sick time. Work computers are monitored to ensure "quality assurance" and for "coaching opportunities.

Pros

Learning is very important and they will support your interest to branch out and learn more in order to advance your career. They also have many locations throughout the country you can relocate too. They are also open to talk about what plans you have for your career and will help you devise a plan to reach your goals within the company.

Cons

My job involved 100% travel and dealing with demands of upper management. Bonus structure for my job was designed to let only a few people attain the highest level. It was not very easy to achieve high quality numbers with demands put forth by upper management.
