      Pros

      AO is a very stable and consistent company. They have a very friendly work environment. Agents love this company. The benefits are pretty nice. Although the salary is below industry they provide yearly bonuses and profit sharing, which sometimes make up for that. The best part is that they pay for all your insurance certifications and leadership courses.

      Cons

      Very micromanaged. Not much flexibility in hours (everyone leaves at lunch at the same time, not a minute prior). Stuffy work environment, and usually never in the big city because they try to be prudent.

      Pros

      Very stable company. Good advancement opportunity if you are willing to be proactive in your continuing education, especially if you are willing to relocate.

      Cons

      Very rigid and traditional atmosphere. Sometimes it feels a little stifling but at least you know what is expected. Lower than average pay in the industry.

      Pros

      - stable company, won't get laid-off and really difficult to get fired (which can also be a bad thing depending on the associate because there are times when people need to be let go) - always get a Christmas bonus and usually receive a profit sharing bonus once or twice a year - full benefit package - never bored, they always keep me busy in my dept.

      Cons

      - very old-school culture * professional dress is required at all times * changes, enhancements, etc. often have to run through layers of management to get approved * perception is very important * expected to arrive early, do not be even a minute late or you will be reprimanded * have many unnecessary meetings - pay is very low compared to industry - many associates in management around the company are not fit for management * some were good at their jobs so they were promoted to management, even though they have no idea how to mentor and lead people * some associates just "put in their time" and got promoted because of seniority * lack of leaders and mentors in management seems to be a problem is many areas of the company, especially in IT
