A lot of work on the front lines - Office Claims Adjuster Farmers Insurance Group Employee Review

Pros

Great benefits and pay for an entry-level position. The work week is 40 hours for most office claims adjusters. When the amount of claims increases employees can request overtime hours. Farmers offers tuition assistance to employees after six months for "related courses." The hours are fairly flexible. OCRs work core hours (six designated hours each day) and then build up the 40 hours/week around that.

Cons

Insurance is a tough business. Most customers will feel "wronged" by the company even if it is the correct liability decision or fair value for their vehicle. There is not a lot of clear communication between agents, field adjusters, and office adjusters. A lot of times it feels like good cop, bad cop between the agents and claims adjusters. Claims adjusters are often micromanaged by supervisors and Quality Assurance.

Pros

Work from home, make your own hours, fun claim types, starts off with great PTO allotment and you have access to all your hours from the moment you start with an extra week after five years

Cons

Good luck with your diaries if you use the PTO. You will come back with overdue items. The way they have their PTO backup system setup is two backup people for the whole department. There is too much work for them so they don't get to much while you are out. Usually voicemails. You can' schedule anything for while you are gone, all your claims have to wait for you to return. The amount of new claims a week has drastically increased and it isn't sustainable. They do expect you to work more than your 40 hours or recommend that you find a different job that isn't a salary position, PTO calendars are always red with blackout dates. Supervisors and the manager don't listen to actionable items presented to make the department better. The attrition is bad, but they continue to tell us we are fully staffed because our diaries aren't that bad yet. Adjusters are dropping like flies but won't hire anymore. Not sure if that comes from senior leadership or direct leadership. Ever since Jeff Dailey left, we are just numbers. No one cares about us anymore and it is evident.
