Can’t wait to quit. Every minute I have free out of my day is spent looking for another job. SF is a dead end road if you are in claims.

Happy Thanksgiving to all my State Farm co-workers. We all know the company is jaded. But I wish everyone a safe family filled much needed time off.

SF biggest legal problem is that it is underpaying it's employees for all kinds of roles. This is at the leadership level across departments but is also a huge problem in claims. In many areas in claims they have para-professionals doing prof-tech... — read more 

Do ET or Security leadership have concerns about the talent exodus in their departments or not care? The people leaving are skilled experts that the company should retain and more talented than their “leaders” as a bonus.

I’m not saying that there aren’t great talented individuals among the cheaper employees, however, generally speaking, the problem is that SF's priority has become a cheap workforce and not a competent one. I guess the leadership thinks that cheap... — read more

What would it take for you to stay working here after the bonus? - I asked myself. More money?… That would be nice but unless the raise is above 10% it will not be worthy. Let’s be honest; that will not happen unless they pull their heads out of the... — read more 

Did not see many people working in the office at the hub. Does HR, IT, and other employees have a hybrid schedule like claims employees? Or are they still able to work from home only?

Who will be giben the keys next. Going to be like GE - overheat the engine and the let the next deal with all if the business and talent issues

Do you honestly think SF will buy out the pension at some point? Or they will just buy out those with less than certain $ a month? I guess for many people the only reason to stay is the pension.

The new CHIP/CLIP systems being implemented in Claims are clunky, cumbersome, and have slowed down my ability to work efficiently. I don't believe it is a matter of adjusting and learning the new systems as some of the problems include; multiple... — read more 

Who else is waiting for the bonus to leave after that?

Discuss!

I enjoyed serving the veterans breakfast when we employed them. The smile on their face for just a thank you. The time we had could never be bought. Then, SF took that moment away from us due to cost while at the same time CEO gets 20 million dollar... — read more 

I've reached my last straw. First line Information Security management is a joke. Many second line "leaders" are equally bad. The majority of these so called "leaders" are not technical, do NOT understand their product team, nor have real Information... — read more 

So ole Tipsy had his quarterly Exec call today with leadership and normal typical BS. Let's sum it up for everyone: If you are in claims be prepared to come back in the office more...don't count on the WFH long term! I can't micro-manage you! (but... — read more 

Inflation rates have been announced and it is 6.2% higher than a year ago. That means if you make $100,00 and do not get a $6,200 raise, you are worse off than a year ago.

What is the % of leaders and % of high performers leaving. It seems to be an exodus. Is there no concern?

I am impressed with State Farm's handling of Aaron Rogers. Well done! Respect a differing opinion is a good neighbor.

Mutual Trust, integrity and quality relationships are three core values that State Farm was built on. Aaron Rodgers does not respect our values. He values himself. He lied about being vaccinated with air quotes saying he’s “immunized”. That truly... — read more 

With a white hot spotlight illuminating Rogers intentional deceit and deception along with purposely not complying with NFL Covid protocol around teammates, media and fans can Rogers remain the most well known SF spokesman?

Really Sh---y of State Farm to essentially put claims on 6 day work weeks during the holiday months. It really puts the cherry on top of a really sucky year. The least they could do is increase our pay to be more competitive with other companies in... — read more

My Lawyer says l have a good case for Title VII violation. What's funny is this is literally in the Law Dept. What a freak show!!!
