Topics regarding layoffs at State Farm Insurance

Why isn't everybody looking for a new job?

Why am I not surprised?

Hilarious!

I heard a rumor today that Express plans to add anywhere from 1500-1800 employees over the next year. That is almost a 40% increase in staffing. Holy sh-t! How can you f-up staffing like that. Complete joke! Can you imagine the quality of... — read more 

Your advice to new hires?

I would recommend SF only to people who are currently unemployed and do not plan to stay here long. Plans to build a career here should be forgotten. I feel sorry for those who will gain their early work experiences here because they will think that... — read more

Claims Operation Summary

Interesting communication from VP Yi, finally some humility with the claims work force. It seems senior claims leadership is finally responding to the unhappiness in the work force. I'm interested in how the TM meetings will do next week.

Come On State Farm, Step up!

State Farm please do a survey asking employees if they would take a buy out. Come on, don't be a p--zyyy, do it. Use a third party vendor and just ask the questions. Then after you do it be brave enough to share the results with the employees. ... — read more

Will there be any talented people left here at all?

I don’t remember more people leaving this company ever before. SF seems indifferently decided to surrender all its talented people to the competition. It’s the d-mbest thing any company can do. However, it seems to me that SF does not see departure... — read more 

Sound Familiar???

https://apple.news/AIMYyKoFMT3OZWrQR1y5H3g This article is about Cigna, but it could have been written by any SF today. Take a minute to read it. With almost 100 years of service, SF is no longer a “good neighbor.” Apparently EVERY DARN COPY of “The... — read more
