Just got licensed to become an adjuster. I currently work for progressive but I am considering going to another company because the pay is low in comparison to other companies/market based on my research. Idk where I should start or what my next steps should be. Does anyone have any advice on being a staff/independent adjuster? Who's done both? What worked or didn't work for you. Tia

Wherever you go, make sure you negotiate your salary. These companies will lowball you if you let them. Do not take the first initial offer.

I’m a desk adjuster barely making 50k

My husband is an independent CAT adjuster and appraiser. You need to get in with one of the adjusting firms like Amerijust. They’ll usually take anyone if there is a big storm and you can build your reputation and make more contacts, get on additional adjusting firms’ rosters, etc.

I’ve done it all, worked for Crawford company, small, independent, CIGNA, Hartford, Public Service Mutual and London based Sedgwick James. I was adjuster and examiner in Manhattan, claim supervisor, national claims auditor. Learn as much as you can, as fast as you can, and start your own independent insurance adjusting business. I made peanuts working for all my prior employers and quadrupled my salary after a few years of having my own boutique adjusting firm.
