Way to go, Mike

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!

I'm considering applying to State Farm as a Customer Service Representative. Would you recommend? Why or why not
You can be honest. I want the real deal before I apply
Mr. Tipsord is a decent guy at heart
He has had to make difficult decisions through COVID, but is someone that cares about from front line workers, and them being able to support their families.
They enjoy micromanaging
Okay, maybe I'm not the best employee, but I definitely think that no employee will become any better by getting micromanaged to the point of near insanity. Also, I am sick of seeing good workers getting micromanaged while at the same time... — read more
