Cons

All companies can have cons. The question should be, is the con related to you personally or the company? For example, A con for me could be working 8 hours a day, five days a week. I may only want to work 4 hours a day, two days a week, but that's unrealistic based on the desired take-home salary I want. That would be a personal con, not a work-related con. So, at this point, I don't have any cons. American Fidelity is one of the few companies that try to accommodate their employees as best as possible to ensure they are comfortable and content regarding compensation, benefits, culture, value, diversity, inclusion, and work-life balance.

Pros

First and foremost, the company wants to do good for it's colleagues, shareholders, and customers via compelling value added products, culture focused initiatives and FANTASTIC compensation strategies (I can confidently say there is no other employer in the OKC metropolitan area that compensates their employees more than American Fidelity.

Cons

Some departments Customer Engagement (CERS) are toxic places to work. Sexual harassment, unfair expectations for colleagues and leadership, favoritism and a totalitarian operational model. If you mess up, you will never be forgiven. Bye bye career. Worst of all either the executive knows about it and it's a means to an end or their oblivious to how bad it is I don't know which one is scarier. Avoid the department or have a plan, that is known only by you, to peacefully leave. Most people have a tenure of 2 to 3 years with American Fidelity if they start in Customer Engagement.

Pros

Company car and that’s it.

Cons

The most toxic game of high school favoritism I’ve ever seen in a corporate environment. Leaders are laughable, back stabbing, self-involved people who’s role in life is to overwork and under pay you while expecting 100 nights or more of travel and micromanaging your every move. Sales reps are sorely underpaid, it’s pathetic. I’m shocked people take the role anymore. If we were able to document turnover, it’d likely be so high the company would be too embarrassed to admit findings. Culture is the worst I’ve ever experienced, unfortunately managers are blissfully unaware as they’ve created a cult mentality among the “lifers.” This is especially true in Illinois and the management staff there. STAY AWAY FROM AMERICAN FIDELITY. Save yourself from sheer hell.

Pros

Great work-life balance. Company leaders want to retain current employees and provide competitive pay, benefits, perks.

Cons

Not all departments are the same. No matter what company you look at, not all experiences in each department will be the same.

Pros

Great place to work if you want a sales career. Company provides a base salary that goes up with time. Sales associates can earn a advance bonus starting with their first month on the job. Opportunity to make six figures very quickly. You also get to keep what you make as the company pays all of your expenses. Company car and gas is paid is worth a lot. Yes job is demanding, but what job isn't? The opportunity is here to make it a career, which is unusual in todays world. The company is privately owned and you will see and get to know the owners over time. Good people, who care about you, the company and their customers.

Cons

You will probably have to travel some or even a lot. But the opportunity to make a really good living for your family makes it worth it.

Pros

Management is attentive and thoughtfully implements processes to make the team more efficient. Overall company culture is wonderful, everyone is friendly and enjoys working there.

Cons

I did not experience any cons during my time there.

Pros

Company car, gas card, work laptop, 401k match, significant travel if that is what you’re looking for

Cons

High turn-over rate for account managers resulting in major boys club of those that remain to climb corporate ladder, very poor communication from upper management, expectations of role not sufficiently explained, salary and health benefits are not competitive to others in industry, very significant amount of overnight travel time that can effect work/life balance, high pressure to perform and hit quotas, interview process is very in-depth, training is not adequate for the role, new account managers are given less successful school districts to enroll in which effects take-home income, “unlimited PTO” is not really unlimited, not LGBTQ inclusive.

Pros

They value all their employees.

Cons

There are restrictions on family members being hired.
