I second what the first poster noted . I worked for . a large , greencolored insurance provider after grad school . Part of the gig was working through associatelevel positions like the one you ' re describing , so I can say I have some first hand knowledge of what it will be like . It will be awful . Policy holders and claimants will be rude not all , but 30 % plus , and question you . Those around you and managing you will have less legal knowledge than you , and your last 3 years of hard work will count for nothing . Think about how it will feel to have a J . D . , and yet still be called uneducated and stupid by at least one person every day , while not being able to say anything back . Further , I ' m going to take a wild guess and say you likely will not wind up making it into working as counsel for them . I went in as a project manager who had to be a part of a program to learn general associate management on the claims side before being allowed a spot as a PM . Yeah , I got 1 project in 18 months , then right back to doing droll management of associate teams and a claims group and cycling through different associate slots for 1 week 1 month to learn them . I think this is turning into a rant and a bit to anecdotebased to come off well . All I can say is to look at the pay to determine how unpleasant it is approximately for the the highest level adjuster ? Is that actually going to let you exist and pay off your loans ? I should add working here is what finally kicked me over the edge in trying to decide if I should go to law school or not . That was a great decision , so I guess it wasn ' t ALL bad .
