If you have been with SF for 10 years or less GET OUT NOW. Do not waste your time or energy on this company. For my 35 yrs they have done nothing but take from employees. There goal is literally to make employees miserable. There is a better life after SF. And for any smart a-s woke little weasel that wants to smart a-s me for this post. Shut the f up. These young people need to know what this company is about.

Corporate America and especially SF is the king of propaganda, lies and deceit. Frankly just evil. So what they are about to do is slash the workforce to absolute bare bones, trash your benefits and pay. They will over estimate the impact of AI and then have to back pedal but it will be too late. AI and automation will eliminate tons of jobs but will create additional issues for higher performing functions. In the next 3 to 5 years unemployment is going to go through the roof and all these low skilled, low wage employees are going to vote with their pocket books. On top of that, the thoughts of home ownership and owning a car will go out the window for most people as it already has. SF will start to evaporate overnight as its market to sell products will disappear. Corporate America is literally signing its own death warrant across all industries in terms of having a viable customer and employment base. All the efforts to return manufacturing to the US is a pipe dream. The Execs that run SF and most of Exec/CEOs are absolute pieces of sh-t that have sold their souls and as always bring about their and our demise. If you are thinking about working here or not close to retiring, leave this place as soon as you can and get out of corporate America. Find a skill or actual trade. The Toxic EOM, LEAN, AI, DEI, Woke, Preferred Pro-nouns, Drop-Files, Action Plans, 1x1s, SXS, TPD, Huddles, Standards, Proper Behaviors, Accountability Cycle, Templates, Metrics, Trends, Connectivity, Culture, Red Standard, Modernization, Upskilling...blah blah blah.... and just all the other untold chaos and utter mindless bullsh-t will absolutely destroy your soul unless you are willing to sell your soul to the devil. Find a way out and have a plan!
Progressive indeed is the best. Their auto politics aren't ridiculous (still lower after accident, yes, you cannot make this up lol), pretty sure employees are making good money and they make right hiring decisions with internal promotions unlike simply promoting a clown with zero IT work experience from a claims related job to creating AWS microservices (yep, you cannot make this up either). Wasted opportunity on someone experienced who really needed the job.
Don't worry I am indeed milking at after I got borderline harassed by a "lead data engineer" literally had zero knowledge in anything but yaps garbage and taks credit for everyone's work. He was promoted from a claims specialist to ET, i guess that's what they do to customers too. Completely unfair to me an now i have to deal with losing benefits and more lagging salary increases. Its not worth it.
This is the problem with statefarm management, make problems for competent people after committing poor hiring decisions and destroy teams.
I love the posts that say, Do as I say and don't speak up against me because I obviously am the only one that knows the full answer.
Yes and before you leave go out on FMLA for 6 months and get your 6 months worth of STD. About 10%-15% of employees right now are out on some type of leave. We really need to get that number up higher as it causes all kinds of issues with staffing and creates a better paper trail for someone who might want to take legal action or give SF unwanted media attention. Slip and fall, stress leave, mental issues, physical issues, go as low as you can because I promise you they will sink to the lowest level and then some. Make it game just like they are doing with peoples lives. Go Progressive!
Send all TA’s in ET to HCL.
