Pros

Access to senior management is terrific, working environment is first class, training, flexible work program, and commitment to employee engagement is outstanding. The company's associates, for the most part live the values. Leadership is diversifying and growing the business. Great place to work. Free underground parking too!

Cons

Nationwide Insurance, as parent company is weakening the culture. HR, IT, and Finance systems don't create value; they are taking us back in time. Generally systems are slow and old. Incentive compensation is becoming a joke as Nationwide is moving to a one size fits all approach. Not at all motivating. Too many distractions from parent company.

Pros

Great products to work with on the annuity side and some good life products. Good commission schedules...Very financially strong and stable company to work with, which is important to show clients. Access to a lot of local farmers through the farm bureau.

Cons

If you work for a primary agent, then they get all of the bonuses for your products, which can actually be ok depending on how you are getting paid by them. Some life products/and fixed annuities are not very competitive...current nationwide clients get wrapped up in the p&c side of the business, which can sometimes make it more difficult to make financial sales.
