How can a Mutual company add $15 billion to its net worth over the last 2 years with over $100 billion in the bank not have the lowest insurance rates in the market and the highest paid employees??? How can executives get 6 figure bonuses but at the... — read more 

Listening to the CEO respond to his employees concerns was embarrassing. Employees don’t understand their benefits? Courage over comfort? I really had hope and thought hearing the concerns would generate positive change but they already know the... — read more 

Just Read this. It’ seems that the company is putting under review its partnership with Weber Shandwick, which has served as SF lead agency for 9 years. I’m curious what we can expect from this review. Can we expect some sort of twist in the... — read more

I know we discussed this layoff already, but this is a farewell note for 159 SF folks who will be leaving in a day... WARN: http://www.floridajobs.org/REACT/warn.asp?year=2018

I heard leadership that were let go in April 2018 recently received letters asking them to return the MIP bonus they received. Fact or fiction??

I hear a lot of the agents are flunking the required exam. Some agents are getting out of the mutual funds business altogether. What's been your experience? Do they need to bring back field sales support?

Yes, I agree with this phrase. Finding the courage within to leave an abuser vs. finding comfort of being abused.

People that actually work for the company in claims and estimatics know what the acronym is so no need to spell it out. More downsizing in estimatics is on the way.

While reading some Glass Door Reviews online, I saw an interesting post. A person got a CS PIP/MPC position with just a phone interview. SO SAD and FRUSTRATING! There are several CS positions available in the Dallas HUB that are hiring externally. In... — read more 

I left SF because of point system. Tell me more about it being removed. What replaces it?

So with the news that the points system is going to go away and the way they treat us being so horrible we should plan that on 11/17/18 to all call in. A walkout to show that we are so fed up with the direction of the company as a whole. We continue... — read more

I wanted to pose these questions to M.T. via the "Ask the CEO" page, but knew I'd be fired if I had. I have ZERO doubt one of the many MT minions patrol this board, so, (via VPN proxy server because no way do I trust that there wouldn't be... — read more 

I know nothing big is happening but are stealth layoffs still taking place? Haven't seen many posts on it lately, so I'm hoping for the best.

So according to an email today, Auto ILR is so backed up that Fire ILR is now going to have to file Auto claims, including the new hires in Fire who have never been trained in auto claims. So much for Auto ILR.

True? False? Anyone?

I’ve been with State Farm over 25 years and filed a claim. Hold time averaged 15 minutes and the actual call 45 minutes. Coverage and benefits explain d incorrectly, and at one point my claim was denied, due to it being 30 days post loss. The process... — read more 

If you're a mutual policyholder, please reply "yay" or "nay" and then ask all other mutual policyholders to do the same. The more votes we can aggregate here the better.

I’ve never seen so many people voice their opinions as I’ve seen in the “Ask the CEO” post. If leadership doesn’t make changes based off this feedback then they are beyond loss and this company will fail. Keep giving feedback and making your voice... — read more

State Farm's mockery of insurtech, AI and bots is backfiring big time! To me, as a former employee, this just exposes State Farm for who they really are: an old and crusty company, set in their ways, and resistant to new technology. They sound like... — read more

This is becoming unbearable.

The economy is moving to a manufacturing economy. Heck a truck driver makes more than management at SF. SF is no longer a career. It's a forigen country sweat shop call center.

A little birdie told me that current state farm CAs and CSs are blackballed from being hired at other insurance companies, namely Progressive. This is specifically in the Atlanta area, not sure about any other areas. Any idea WHY? Flies away
