      No Opinion of CEO

      I have been working at Farmers Insurance Group full-time for more than 3 years

      Pros

      Excellent support systems for agents. Loads of opportunity made available. Manage expectations.

      Cons

      Bonus and incentive structure is consistently being reworked, which makes it hard to keep to a consistent plan of action. Smaller agencies can have a real hard time compensation and sifting through all of the Brand requirments and agency oversight. Applications provided are often difficult to interact with and are under maitenance.

      Advice to Management

      Pick something and stick to it. I understand the reworking of incentives and applications but keep some kind of consistent structure which allows the majority of agencies to compete and my ends meat.

      I worked at Farmers Insurance Group full-time for more than a year

      Pros

      The people were great to work with. I had the pleasure of visiting an off-site office and found everyone to be just lovely there as well. Good team work, hires good people who want to do a good job. Company does a lot of community work, provided incentive for staff to do volunteering. Good access to resources, company wants to invest in employees. Long retention of employees.

      Cons

      Horrendous use of technology. They were using such outdated systems for both sales and service, it was beyond frustrating. There was no synchronization between state systems, to sell or service in other states required use of different systems. Antiquated. Buggy. Added to huge stress on staff when they would lose so much of their work because of poor systems, depleted customer experience. Company was profitable,... should have invested more in updated technology. Parent company Zurich in Switzerland, really felt like we could have benefited from more of their direct expertise, especially regarding technology. Sometimes felt very disorganized and inept with regards to technology.

      Cons

      9-6 hours, so traffic is the only downfall to working here
