Pros

Learn about many different types of insurance and financial products. Learn sales and communication skills. Potential opportunity to learn about/become an agent. Pleasant co-workers, but does depend on the office/agent.

Cons

Low pay. Low appreciation. Occasionally long hours. No benefits/limited benefits. Certain customers can be difficult to deal with. Constant turnover and having to train replacements constantly. Expect to deal with most of the agent's problems for them.

Pros

Great atmosphere, great stability and good compensation. All of the benefits are amazing. The company is focused on the promise all the way through the employees. We consider the money we need to spend the policyholder's dollars. Being both an employee and a policyholder, I respect that. Also State Farm is a Mutual Insurance company, which means there are no stocks or stockholders. All policyholders own the company. Don't have to worry about what the market thinks of us to do our job. We focus on the policyholders and what is best for the company.

Cons

Is a large company, can be frustrating on how slow it moves. While additional vacation is given at 5 years, then nothing until 15 years, no additional vacation at 10 years can be a de-motivator. Such small things listed here have to mean something good.
