Agency has always been crazy. That’s what the job is. But the weird thing is the more SF messes things up, the more they need the agents. Somebody has to answer the phone and try to make sense of this mess to the customer, and nobody else does it... — read more 

There is a reason they want over 40 employees out. They ask too many smart questions. Amd see through things.

Short term gain and long term pain. All the savings comes from hollowing out intellectual capital with employees that actually know how to adjust claims. There will come a time when the public realized the wheel has fallen off the wagon, and the SCP... — read more

Kind of left us hanging with the announcement where they told us to work from home for now, with more news to come in 2021. Anyone think there is a chance for permanent WFH jobs in claims, or are they looking to jam everything into the hubs.

Does anyone have any more info about the ET 15% cut?

Is it the end of proximity estimatics?

Can someone explain how many people were cut in HR? Locations? Also, what the process was. Did you have interview for your job, etc?

There was a time when State Farm was a place where you could expect to have a career and retire from. Since then, it has turned into an insecure job with no hope of progressing unless you know the right people. And the sad part is, I think the way... — read more 

Should I leave for one of these fully remote opportunities. Paying 36 to 90k more than I am making now. Fully remote WFH? State Farm paid for so many certifications for me. At State Farm for about 4 years.

Does anyone have knowledge of State Farm’s competitiveness with salary compared to the other big insurance companies?

It blows my mind to see all the negativity here. SF has it better than other insurance companies. If you’re not happy then by all means let me walk you to the door and make sure it doesn’t hit you on the way out. Stop complaining. There are millions... — read more

SF.net can post multiple Jake stories a day but not a peep from Leadership. Email? Hah! Claims is only getting third-hand gossip and TMs running around w/ their hair on fire.

Maybe they shouldn’t have given people lower ratings than they deserved to save a few bucks on EIP. Maybe they shouldn’t have reduced staffing by such a large percentage. Maybe they should have given a f— about their employees because now guess... — read more

As predicted by some people on this forum, rehires and new hires in 2021 will not have a pension. Instead the company will up the 401k contribution. Whoopee! What’s next?
