well they said starting salary 23/hour, paid weekly. Not sure if that’s before or after taxes. Is it a good salary ? It’s an engineering internship, by the time I’m there I will already have my bachelors degree done and I’ll be studying masters. Company is located at the outskirts of Pittsburgh… + they will get me a free accomodation and cover the travel costs.

If you generally like your insurance company and have good benefits there, try getting requoted. Usually they up the rates every year and can't lower them, so then they 'make a new company' under their same brand and basically you re-start with lower rates. Rinse and repeat every few years. If you do switch companies altogether, make sure it's one where you can get an accident forgiveness clause up front; there are places that make you wait at least a year before you can add that protection. Also be sure to 'bundle' your home or renters or jewelry insurance or whatever together, and you can get a discount that way. And you can check to see if any organizations you are affiliated with receives a discount with your company!
