Pros

Great starting place for salespersons.. After Fed training you have your pic of companies to work for High starting salary for Marketing Rep's (72K) Room for making good money depending on territory you are assigned (can also be terrible depending on territory) Defined territories Some of the best training in the industry Good work life balance

Cons

Typical "drink the cool-ade mentallity" At times it seems like the company doesn't actually want to write business Manager's are either great or terrible and micro to the n'th degree Mnagers almost scare marketer's into never leaving (I've never met anyone who has left Fed that is in a better place now-- this IS 100% FALSE... I am and I know plenty of people who are) Tought to move vertically without living in Owatonna MN aka Alaskka

Pros

Hands down, the best employment culture of any company I’ve worked for in my 25+ years practicing law. Federated is a true rarity - a company that genuinely lives its corporate values every day, in decisions both large and small. Leadership listens to employees with curiosity and a willingness to improve, not defensiveness or indifference. There’s a common refrain that if a company takes care of its employees, those employees will, in turn, take care of customers. I’ve never seen that philosophy embraced or executed as successfully as it is at Federated. Success is recognized and rewarded, teamwork - or “interdependence,” as we call it - is the norm, and challenges or setbacks are treated as opportunities for constructive feedback and growth. And that’s before even mentioning the outstanding compensation and benefits. I recommend Federated wholeheartedly and without reservation to friends and family.

Cons

Business formal dress code for more senior positions may be a bit antiquated.
