CHEAP - AUTO PHYSICAL DAMAGE CLAIMS ADJUSTER Farmers Insurance Group Employee Review

Pros

Company car, cell phone, etc. Field work 100% of the time, zero commute time. Other greate reasons to work for Farmers is that you don't necessarily need industry experience to work for them, they will train you. I trained for a solid 3 MONTHS before I started taking claims. If you work on the Auto side, it is really pretty great.

Cons

Unfair expectations for performance reviews and/or raises. VERY CHEAP, when it comes to bonuses. Having to sell the crap aftermarket parts to the shops and these poor claimants who got hit by our drivers, now they are getting aftermarket crap bumpers on their car.

Pros

Farmers once had a solid reputation, but that has declined since Zurich became involved.

Cons

The company is effectively taking the benefit of years of hard work that prior agents invested to grow their businesses and increase Farmers’ policy count. When I started as an agency owner, I invested my own time and money into advertising and building a book of business with the understanding that the sacrifices would pay off over time through renewal commissions. I believed this would create long-term value—something I could eventually rely on to support my retirement. Instead, the constant changes to commission structures and ongoing requirements to continue receiving compensation on business I personally produced—without support—have been incredibly discouraging. It feels like a moving target, and one that diminishes the value of what agents have built. I’ve never been in a position where meetings are held to explain how and why compensation will be reduced or taken away. That reality is deeply frustrating and disheartening.
