      It Is About The Company

      Pros

      It's a pay check - Not commensurate with the workload. You can be assured of employment (if you can handle the workload) until you near full retirement where life becomes increasingly miserable.

      Cons

      Disregard for family hardships created by corporate decisions. Such as demanding that all Texas employees relocate to Austin or loose their jobs. Some employees have elderly parents that are their responsibilities. The demands of the company creates dynamic hardships for "families." Behind the smoke and mirrors, how financially sound is the company really?

      Pros

      State Farm has an excellent company culture. If you are bright, articulate and mobile you can go far with this company.

      Cons

      Mobility is a must for upward advancement and development is generally left for those few folks that happen to be mobile. That results in leaders who are the "best of the mobile" instead of the best of the best.

      Financially strong company, poor hiring practices

      Pros

      Financially strong company. Industry leader. Agency opportunity is good in high premium states, very difficult to make a living in low premium states. Promote from within to a fault. Opportunities everywhere in the country. They still have a good old fashioned pension for employees.

      Cons

      Only those that are financial service producers get promoted. Very few opportunities to get hired by the company above entry level. Seems quasi-government at times. Illustrations provided by leadership to recruit agents are overstated by about 70%+ in some cases. Slow to change.
