Dont understand how we can let prime exec talent walk out the door.
Is it true?
Is it true that CEO must retire at age 65?
Bonus checks clear?
What happens after April 15th?
Ed Rust
You know Ed Rust……I love that man, things would be so different if he was still CEO
Accepting a worse offer
I'm still here only because I can't get a better offer but I'm rather picky when it comes to accepting new work. However, isn't it surprising how many people accept even a lower paying job just so that they are no longer here?
Marketing Cuts
How many have been cut from Marketing? I am so sorry for anyone being cut. Prayers to everyone losing their jobs.
Are you too trying to stay under the radar?
It doesn't surprise me that most of us here are surviving by doing so. That's completely understandable. However, in this way the employees cannot realize their full potential and in fact waste time during which their talent would be more visible... — read more
3 pet evaluations
SF has used a third party software program to evaluate 3rd party aka claimant injury values for a long time. Even when suits get filed they still rely on this over their injury attorneys. These lawyers are paid a simple flat fee to handle the suit... — read more
HCL rebadging has been the best idea management has come up with
I'm speaking as someone who had gone through the HCL rebadging. This is probably the best idea that management has made. Most will agree that the "historical" culture at state farm was one where a few people did the work while others sat around and... — read more
How many have quit since January 2023?
Does State Farm still have the highest turnover rate in the United States? Looking at the majority of posts on this page, it looks like State Farm is still one of the worst places to work in the country. Have enough people quit to the point State... — read more
Employees Beware
Things they are hiding. Recently marketing cut several employees. I know this isn’t a surprise to anyone reading this, but now marketing is posting to replace these folks. Even before they have an end date. If you’re a pensioned employee you are... — read more
Former LOC Employees
How secure are the fully remote employees who are former LOC employees. How long until they are laid off as we staff up in the hubs? Thoughts?
Deceitful strategy. Execs gain
See article. Trolls (children and systems jokes) can act all high and mighty but people know the truth about you and the lies. Pension and payout and options and lies. Funny accounting and payroll and HR and benefit and payroll and HR practices... — read more
People are no longer afraid
I think it's funny that mgmt is still trying to manage by fear. They are completely detached from reality. How can they not see that people are no longer afraid for their jobs here because everyone already knows that the grass is greener outside?
Corporate Jets?
Can we track them online? What's the name of our corporate jet / corporate airplane ???
Retaining talent
Another colleague of mine who did excellent work has resigned. It is so discouraging. This company is definitely failing to retain talent and I wonder what needs to be changed so that the best people don't leave? It seems that everyone is... — read more
New Claims Hires Are Able To Negotiate Their Pay
One of the biggest areas of contention in claims is the pay. Recently I learned from a new hire that HR is negotiating pay with new people coming into the fold. Some of the new hires are making more money than people who’ve been with the company... — read more
Way to go, Mike
congrats as i read in Crain's your haul of $25 million for 2022. Even though the company lost 3 times the billions lost in 2021, somehow you managed to overcome the optics of it. Even on the best CEOs list. Keep up the good work
They want me to quit
I have a feeling that I'm being forced to quit. Too many things have happened in a short period for it to be a coincidence. I'm not sure what to do. I don't want to quit knowing there will be layoffs soon and miss out on severance, but I don't know... — read more
Are they spying on us via our laptop?
Do you know if the company is able to listen to our conversations at home or watch us through our camera while we are at home working? Wonder if we are being watched or listened to whenever our computer is signed on?

Claims leadership.
So we are getting lots of emails about claims specialist moving up to TM roles, but what happened to all the TMs that got replaced? What’s the plan to replace these specialist that are leaving?
Did anyone work at the Birmingham or Murphreesboro LOC?
Does anyone work at or previously work these two locations? I saw SF closed these locations during the pandemic (2020?). Was everyone able to keep their jobs? I used to work at the B'ham location right before the pandemic. Just curious, thank you!
Anyone that didn’t accept HCL offer successfully post out?
Has anyone in ET that declined the HCL offer been able to successfully post-out? Or are those employees being black-balled?

HCL transition successful?
Been over a week. Haven’t heard much. Y’all think it was a non event?

Since so many of you hate it so much, why not just leave?

What does the board think?
Think about the last couple years…13 billion lost in 2022 and claims being terribly under staffed by thousands. How do you let either of these happen? These aren’t just slightly miscalculated mistakes these are massive massive massive errors by the... — read more

Today's the day!
Let's pour one out in honor of the 860ish folks who start working for Indian call center overlords today. Please do the needful well, and please do it kindly.
Incompetent Executive Leadership !
It started when the current ceo got placed….a finance and accounting manager who didnt have a clue what he was doing and still doesnt to this day. And lets not forget Robert Yi who under the guidance of the ceo put in place of not hiring folks when... — read more
