If staffing was appropriate what do y’all think?

I mean decent raises that keep up with inflation. I’m pretty sure SF can afford it, but the leadership obviously thinks that most of us are happy with just having a job, right? What a mistake!

Ohhh thank you ohhh Savior Lord Tipsy for the $1500 bonus if we just don't quit! You are such a great and wonderful leader that inspires me to go to work everyday! We are sooo lucky to have you since you are such a visionary leader! The hubs were... — read more

Anyone know why the increased time on hold for SF Support? Recently I was on hold for over an hour and today it was 3 1/2 hours. Did Tippy defund SF Support?

Claims CS here, I was told my rating a few weeks ago, but still haven’t learned what my raise will be for the year. Is my TM just behind the curve here ?

Most of us realize that having externals is not really cheaper. However, decision makers need to understand that as well. I absolutely agree with someone who said that internal employees' day consists of fixing the external hires' mistakes instead of... — read more

Unions formed during industrial revolution to shuck the shackles of the employee overlords. Time for history to repeat itself when they deny you promised benefits. Join Treamsters and you get instant legal expertise and muscle.

I would be very interested to know, if you were in an accident and I was handling your claim, how many other claims would you be comfortable with me juggling at the same time? 100? 200? 300? All my best.

I’ll start, I’m working on applications for USAA, Farmers and Progressive. Are there any companies you have heard good things about ?

Judging by the experiences of my colleagues who had to train new people, I would not want to train anyone here. No way. Training new hires means getting squeezed to the maximum, or at least that's the impression I got?

Obviously most forced overtime is in claims. It’s been ongoing since August. What happens if we decline? Will they terminate and short staff further? I’ve really debated just flat out saying no lately.

Unprecedented times call for unprecedented measures! Why can’t they just throw everybody into the phone path regardless of their position? They keep saying we have to keep the customer in mind- bring the analysts back to the teams and put the... — read more

There are so many issues for employees within SF. Make sure to take care of yourself, check your physical and mental health… do not delay treatment for a job. I did and I regret it.

The closer we get to being paid the bonus , the more people claim’s lose. We never add new staff, only replace people that left months ago, get it together SF..
