Pros

Excellent 401K plan. Company car provided. Decent earnings if you are hired to sell and service in an already established territory. Strong claims department and reputation.

Cons

Product restrictions and rules in specific target market make it difficult to grow the business. Over-emphasis on profits limits growth and account retention. Not very flexible underwriting. Certain geographic markets are more competitive than others. Cumbersome quoting process.

Thank you for your thoughtful, detailed review. We’re proud of our reputation as a financially strong insurance company and are happy to provide our associates with a strong benefits package. We can partially attribute our success to our strategy when making decisions about risk, which is represented by the products we sell and the businesses we choose to insure. We understand sales can be challenging at times, so we’re doing our best to give our account managers the tools to succeed—including investing in technology to develop a better quoting process. Thank you again for your feedback. Your comments will help us improve. John Hyland, Vice President of Standard Business Products and Dealer Operations

Some co-workers seem to talk more than work, but that's how you build relationships within the company.
