… until the corporate drones and TMs showed up to sh-t on any meaningful post. Case in point … who’s excited for Verint screen monitoring in INJ next month? Yay! Our transition to EXP continues. Shout me down and prove my point.

Reinstating/reimplementing COLA (Cost Of Living Adjustment) would be a pretty nifty recruiting and retainment strategy right now.

Mondays are the worst. I’ve worked a lot before, but I really loved doing my job. It was fun. Now I start working under stress and I finish working under stress. The pressure is incredible. It’s sad to remember how relaxed it used to be... — read more 

I was talking to my friend from Express who is now an Auto Underwriting Service Assistant in personal lines. She said it's much better than claims. Most of them only have to come into the office once a month and others just 2 days a month. They get... — read more 

When is the payout for the EIP bonus?

And bring back the experienced reps. State Farm’s reputation is in the toilet and can still be plunged out by doing these things. Put your ego to the side.

Were you encouraged on our future by the messaging today?

Working here is like watching the theater play every day. There is a leadership that acts using some empty phrases trying to convince us that they have everything under control. There are those who act pretending to work hard, and all they do is... — read more 

I wonder who will be the next leader and IF things will improve then?

Has anyone else noticed that recent promotions seen to be based on looks , to show the company has a more youthful look?

Can you believe they would have the audacity to send out an email to all current and retirees for 100 year anniversary with link to the company store for an employee or retiree to purchase 100 year celebration items? Boy! To buy anything to... — read more 

Can someone with experience tell me about these positions? How many hours per week? How often do you work weekends?

I would take a $10k annual pay cut to reduce 50% of stress I experience here every day. Who else thinks this way? Sometimes I think I would be very happy to exchange this job for the one that's paid less, but more relaxed.

Can anyone offer their legal knowledge? It’s time to take a stand!

I was told that in a 1x1 today, and also not to question what’s going on. ECR’s are even dropping faster than internals. Anyone tired of mandatory overtime yet, and also the sad s-b story from your TM? the externals are making far more per hour than... — read more 

I'm trying to imagine State Farm where the leadership agreed that they all need to make less. Do you really think that would solve the issues of this company?

YOU ARE IN COMMAND! TAKE CARE OF YOUR TROOPS NOT YOURSELF!

Wrists hurt? Can’t sleep at night waking up with pain? An ergonomic review has been denied to you or received little advise from one? I hear more and more co-workers complaining about these things. If you are suffering from any pain and you think it... — read more 

We're becoming increasingly disorganized. Is it normal that for two colleagues who left, there has been no replacement for almost four months? In the meantime, of course, those of us who are still here are doing their job.

Are they really hiring? Maybe all the new hires are in other departments and just personally haven’t seen or heard of them.

And I'm not even talking about the hot-button issues, I'm talking about simple comments and constructive criticism. These days telling somebody to do something that's his or her job equals slapping them in the face. If you try to correct them, even... — read more 

I have heard rumors that something happened in Cityline. Is it true?? So sad!

Backstabbing. Gossiping. Lying. Sinister cliques. I’ve never adapted to a State Farm work atmosphere, and I’ve been here for over three years. The toxic atmosphere here bothers me more than anything else. Of course, there is some of that in... — read more

I got offered a job at ESIS for auto/general liability i'm considering taking. Offers slightly more money with a little bit more freedom. Any of you got something lined up already?

State Farm wants to get the most out of it employees, but at the same time doesn't want to invest in technology. It's horrible to hear that a person who works chat system stops working several times a day. The outdated technology here can sometimes... — read more 

Where should I apply?

So for all the employees that did not get to see our inspirational CEO yesterday, here is the cliff notes! We've had the best year ever! MT went around the room and asked each function SVP to confirm it was their best year ever. MT.. "Some people... — read more 

This is how it is behind the scenes. The rating system sucks since they are not transparent on the ratings we receive. They use a faulty criteria to give employees numbers with little explanation instead relying on a generic context. Then when you... — read more
