      Oppressive management and little chance for advancement

      Pros

      Short workweek of 37.5 hours. Business casual dress. Decent job for the area. Mediocrity is acceptable. Decent PTO. Many of the positive reviews are from life long employees too afraid or unwilling to move on. The company benefits from being located in a community with many low paying jobs.

      Cons

      Rapidly changing priorities. Inflexible with working hours. Low pay. Lifetime employees that aren't willing to learn and do no more than required. Only continuing education the company supports is insurance education. Managers are more concerned with keeping their positions and pleasing boss than developing employees. Very small town, old school, we've always done it that way attitude. Management has done two employee surveys in two years, requested additional employees focus groups and has made minimal changes. Constant turnover in low paying support roles.

      Needs Major Improvements

      Pros

      If you're unemployed and American National offers you a job, take it in the interum until you can get something better.

      Cons

      Management is disrespectful and blames lower level employees for their incompetence. They don't know what they're doing and will not give you the tools or information needed to do the job. Management berates other employees in front of you and will do the same to you within earshot. No one really knows what they're doing. They are all just winging it because there is no formal training of any kind, ever. The software they use is antiquated. There is no structure. Everyone constantly scrambles to fix mistakes at the last minute which causes unnecessary stress. They have taken away the pension plan and sick days. Evaluations are now graded on a bell curve and they find any reason to give employees a 2% raise instead of the standard 5% cost of living increase. Morale is low among employees and management displays lack of integrity.

      Pros

      Strong working atmosphere. Good people within the company. Flexible hours.

      Cons

      Lacking training program. Once "ACP" period is over, you are thrown out into the field with limited resources. No brand recognition due to no advertising or marketing. No provided leads. Have to invest a ton of your own personal money to generate activity.
