I would just like to say the Hubs are reality. However if you are preparing to move to a Hub understand it is radically different than even the SF of the last five years. Most of the less tenured, not all but most, treat their role like a job and... — read more 

MT's 2016 compensation was $8.16 million. I did not see his 2017 compensation in the Pantagraph or in any Internet searches. Does anyone have his 2017 compensation? Please keep replies on topic so mods have no reason to delete. Thanks.

Just curious where the folks that have left the company are working now? Did you stay in Insurance, was the pay comparable. Did you leave insurance and where did you go. A lot of decision for a 20+ employee that relocated to a hub for the... — read more 

Which is better considering the taxes on the cash out?

One thing has been bugging me for a while now: who decides who gets laid of and based on which criteria? I'm trying to make sense of the stuff that has been happening at State Farm, but some of the decisions and selections make so little sense to me... — read more 

State Farm is pinching pennies so bad that they now charge $.10 for a cup of water and $.05 for a plastic fork.

Has anyone ever considered a walk out at the Farm? For years we were willing to take meaningless pay raises in exchange for long term security. Now security is gone, and the pay is still not very tied to performance, and is less competitive by the... — read more 

Yes, I am frustrated. But at the top of this page, click on Allstate, or Farmers, or Nationwide or AmFam. They might as well be the State Farm links. I’m an agent, used to work in Claims. All I have to do is walk across the parking lot and talk to... — read more 

Anyone who has ever trusted the current leadership is uninformed amd asleep. The mistakes they have made and money wasted would have bridged everyone 55 and over to full pension. Millions and millions wasted with no direction or accountability and... — read more 

There is NO capacity for anyone to take PTO, but is anyone else hoarding their PTO? Because none of us know who will be next on the chopping block? Im not going to take any time off, as I may need it to look for another job if/when I am handed a... — read more 

Anyone else get laid off?

Anyone heard about this yet?

So when will transition plan be officially approved for IT? Wave 1 announcements in 2 weeks, then the rest of us are waiting for wave 2 in mid-June. And BTW- Yes I am at a hub and do not feel safe.

What depts have qtd today?

I was wondering if it was possible to get severance paid out in several installments instead in one lump sum? Savings on taxes would be significant that way and I am sure every little matters to people who are freshly out of a job. I personally... — read more 

It seems to get worse here by the day.... people just can’t take it anymore. Some are leaving for greener pastures but others are getting canned left and right. What for? From what I’m seeing severance is not going to be offered for those holding out... — read more 

Ad Services, L&D, IT. Does anyone know what May/June holds for other departments? Some of us have no idea when the ax is coming our way. Anyone have information? Please share.

We lost 5 more in D2 last week! All over Points and no capacity. There are no Mondays or Fridays available until April 2019! 2019!! Only a handful of Tuesdays and Wednesdays are available now. Those 5 who left, leave behind a large inventory that... — read more 

In short - It was a conscious (and very expensive) decision by leadership to hold the convention as scheduled so as not to raise suspicion of agents being a thing of the past in the very near future (by January 2020). You can choose NOT to believe me... — read more 

Question for those of you in the Hubs: Seeing the cuts that are unfolding in the non-Hub areas, what are your thoughts? Do you feel secure in your job because Leadership says the future is in the Hubs?

You're a cog in a 90 yr old money making machine. As long as the end product was green, sure we'll treat you alright with pay, bonuses, timeoff etc...well even give you the illusion of trust and respect...how you like your guided cage??? Comfy. But... — read more 

Bank and L&D have QTDs on 8/31. If the numbers I am hearing are correct, that is potentially 515 people walking out the door for the last time that day. I say potentially b/c some may have opted in or found another job in a different department... — read more

Downing a 40 ouncer for some old friends and collegues. Monday is the QTD for many managers and section managers (and probably others too, but hard to know now days). Wish you all the best. You will be free of this place.

Serious question. The Company is slashing and burning through Departments and in some cases, not even pretending that there is a rhyme or reason behind the decisions they are making. The mantra has been "The future is in the Hubs". For those of you... — read more 

I thought millenial wanted work to be like play time where everyone wins. Why would anyone then design a job that is 180 degrees the opposite and expect them to come work there?

State Farm needs to innovate and change. However, State Farm needs to retain experienced employees who do a great job right now. The agent business model needs to change ASAP ! Customers should be able to add a auto or homeowners policy in a few... — read more

State Farm has MANY job postings in all departments. WHY are they not offering these jobs to the people who they are letting go????

See the money talks article on Sf net? Awesome. Hey everyone, we lose billions annually. Come see how we can help you lose too!

why the 50 CSP jobs listed within MyBlock today? Any thoughts on what's going on?

I'm finally free of the insane office politics at State Farm. I decided to resign before the company handed me a QTD date which was only a matter of time. Good luck to everyone. There is life after State Farm and it's glorious!

I think it is reprehensible that the Farm simply is not updating EIP. Even if it is negative tell the full truth
