Pros

I worked for an independent agent so experiences wiil vary.

Cons

Agency contract is not as lucrative as it used to be. 15-20 years ago it was unheard of for an agent to "go out of business". Now they are dropping like flies. If they can actually write 40 cars a month of new business, they are at work from 7am to 7pm...i doubt if that's why any of them actually went into business for themselves in the first place.
