Hi!

I’m a claims adjuster and have been working in the property & casualty industry for about 15 years. Can anyone recommend any companies that pay well, have good benefits and a good culture? My current company has great benefits, and a great culture but I feel I’m severely underpaid.

I've heard Farmers is pretty good. Don't know firsthand. Check out Glassdoor. The employee reviews are pretty insightful.

Yes, farmers pays well! I started off at 68k w/ no experience

I used to work at Allstate. I loved working there. The culture was amazing and the benefits were great as well.

I worked at Allstate. The pay was poor and the workload was beyond unrealistic. Everyone was behind and management allowed it so there was absolutely no benefit for people getting caught up. I have a few friends there to date and nothing has changed.

Currently companies on new hire are in the range of 80-89k for your senior tenure. These numbers go for companies like Kemper, State Farm, Allstate, Liberty Mutual. Again all this has to be with your given experience ( litigation experience is the one sought out the most ) I am a 10 year vet and I am in the mid park of that number. You should get more on that extra 5 years ;). Good luck

Thank you! I’ve been hearing this is the going range for many companies now. I’m making significantly less than that. My background is personal/commercial auto liability, bodily injury and CGL. I don’t have litigation experience.

At 15 years as a property adjuster you should be making 120-160k depending on your market.

like

Nationwide, Chubb, Pure, Liberty, AmFam, Hanover, even Mercury. NY, CA, CO, NJ, WA

If money is your main goal and you like Adjusting have you thought about Independent adjusting?! It depends on what kind of work life balance you want but pay is way higher on the IA side and most now offer benefits . It sounds like you have multi line experience which will benefit you and offer you tons of variety. I will be honest with you. If you have an entrepreneurial spirit and a good strong work ethic the mainstream insurance companies will be a slow crawl to a high salary. Be sure you look at the entire package when making an assessment on a company not just money. Good luck.

EMC has a really great work environment, I don’t know salary for people with that many YOE, but I know people with only a few years in making mid 60’s. I’d assume with your experience you could get where you want to be.

helpful

I agree with EMC! WLB and company culture is great. Salary is also decent.

How much do you want to make?

At least 80-85k. I’m making significantly less than that with my current company.

Im making 53k at national general and its like pulling teeth to get a decent raise. I want 60 and thats being nice. I just wish they would pay more. The culture is great at allstate / nat gen

I agree it’s hard to get decent increases. It seems the only option is to switch companies. I have heard great things about Allstate.

What type of claims are you handling?

What type of claims have you been handling?

I know that AmTrust, FCCI, Westfield pay significantly more as do most TPAs for a GL adjuster. Take a look at Sedgwick or Gallagher Basset

Without litigation experience I feel there may be a ceiling for pay. More years experience is just more. That doesn’t necessarily mean you have acquired more knowledge or skills. What type of severity do you deal with? Complex coverage issues and other more complex claims earn you more stripes (dollars)

With us, At that kind of experience I'd expect around $75k.

Progressive pays well for senior reps, starting at $88k and up

Scenario: A person with 13 YOE had 40 lpa fixed + 10 % bonus total 44 lpa ctc salary in her company. She switches to Infosys at a salary cut due to location constraints and was paid 40 Lpa ctc (only 32 fixed and 8 lpa variable out of which only 50-60% is paid). While in probation period in Infosys, she receives a permanent wfh opportunity from a small but fast growing company at 45 lpa fixed. So overall benefit she has is 45-36=9 lacs. Should she leave Infosys and join the new smaller company?
