      Pros

      Individual agents can be great to work for if you find the right one. Great people within State Farm (underwriters, service, claims reps) are great to work with for the most part - very friendly people.

      Cons

      Corporate management (Field executives and higher) can be overbearing and apply undo pressure to the agent and team members. Have found that Field Executives are not always ethical when trying to get agents/team members to do their bidding.

      Pros

      Great company to work for. Has somewhat unlimited pay opportunities, but base salary or pay is horrible. Lack of respect from agent.

      Cons

      Many negatives when working for an agency.

      Pros

      Brand name and Customer relationship's that I built.

      Cons

      As long as you have the cash you can become a State Farm Agent. As a staff agent with experience you end up training the agent, only later to be micro-managed and abused. They reap the rewards of their staff's hardwork, while you the staff is only pushed to sale, sale, sale. It's all about new production, not about the client anymore. When interviewing the a "scratch agent" beware because 99% of them do not know how to manage and you could find yourself in a emotional rollercoster position. If you want to work for State Farm as a staff agent be sure to interview the agent and make sure they have been in the agency for at least three years. But keep in mind you are not an "employee" of State Farm, just of the agent's, so if you are mistreated you have no recourse. Hopefully through this statement I can help prevent someone wasting 7 years of their life.
