Topics regarding layoffs at State Farm Insurance

Stuck between a rock and a hard place

Every damn time them layoffs hit, I tell myself that's it, time to bail. But then I chicken out, thinkin' maybe things'll settle down for awhile. Except they never do. Next thing you know, another round hits even sooner, and here I am still takin'... — read more 

People who are quiet quitting

Are you really comfortable knowing other people have to pick up the slack for you? It doesn’t bother you that your coworkers have more on their plate because you’re not pulling your weight? I personally could never do something like that and still... — read more

What happened to SF?

Been here 15 years and the last few years have been next-level dysfunction. Constant reorgs, zero communication, and whiplash "priorities" that change weekly. New hires think this chaos is normal, that's how long this circus has been running. At this... — read more 

If I ran State Farm I would…

Finish the sentence “ If I ran State Farm I would…” Here is my completed sentence. If I ran State Farm I would end agency. I would cut layer upon layer of deadbeat useless management. State Farm needs to get lean and shed all the deadwood. 12th... — read more 

Moving to Hubs

When will section managers be made to move to a hub? Some are already there and going into the offices. How can the company expect to get everything moved to the hubs when they don't even have the section managers there yet. Wonder if they will be... — read more 

Enterprise Technology Layoffs

I am hearing rumors that ET will be going into a new transition plan. Is anyone hearing about potential layoffs under this new leadership?

The Exec briefing was a clown show!

That was the worst Exec briefing that I have ever sat through. A few less brain cells after that one! JF, CS and KS are complete and useless reta-ds! Delusional! That was embarrassing to see JF up there! Fat arsss, pants too tight, shirt too... — read more 

Remember when.....

Does anyone remember when the rallying cry was Warren Buffet and Geico was going to pass us as the #1 auto insurer. Remember when F-ckta-d MT used that excuse to close all the offices, implement EOM, clean house in claims, disastrous hubs, all the... — read more 

RETIREMENT

Why not offer early full retirement and get all the old timers with the higher salaries off the books? Then replace those folks in the hubs. Instead of doing right by the employees SF has a bad reputation of sc--wing its employees. They instead... — read more 

Here is something fun to think about!

We are demonstrating some of our system tools to offshore replacements, and a week or two later being told to give them ADMIN access. This should be fun to watch!

Same old force people out tactics

SF now placing more and more on tms in an apparent move to force them out. Will Sm's be made to move to hubs this year? SF is attempting to force out tm's and employees that are remote so they can replace in hubs without offering severence. My one... — read more 

In Office changes

TM came back from meeting. PTO during in Office weeks will be tracked so employee will need to make up the any in Office days missed. Basically no more using PTO to avoid coming into the office.

EIP/MIP

Nope! The checkbook goes to the customers in the south with tornados first! If customers aren't taken care of and huge MIP/EIP given, media will pursue. California was just a snack before the meal.

Wow.....

SMs and above are having off site meetings this week. Anyone hear anything? We did hear from our TM they are doing a hiring freeze basically and now you have to have a degree to be considered for leadership. Execs going crazy about the expense... — read more 

work/life balance wtf

I can't stand this horrible place!

I know it has been said a million times on here but I hate this place! Been here too long to leave and just trying to survive each day. It's hard to believe SF could become any more toxic but it has. Upper leadership is just the bottom of the... — read more 

ET waste land

I've worked at SF in ET for 15+ years and this is the worst it has ever been. No one is engaged. Everyone is checked out just doing the minimum to get by. I know my team output has probably dropped 50-60% over the last couple of years. We don't care... — read more 

MIP

What will MIP look like this year?

Can a large percentage of class be fired?

Currently working in underwriting. My class has failed observations a few times and on our final attempt. Can the company fire everyone who didn't pass on the last attempt? Over half the class failed.

How you can tell.....

How you can tell any company has problems is when it gets so big that leadership cannot get out from behind their desk and computer to personally visit and see their subordinates. It raises the question: What are they hiding? Can't say they don't... — read more 

Pull this site!

This site, years ago, provided some timely information on changes within the Company. It has now deteriorated into a playground for two or three people that call each other names and bring politics into a non political topic. It is a poor reflection... — read more 

G.J. Mecherel rolling over in his tomb.

Poor G.J. Started State Farm because he felt it was unfair for country auto owners to pay the same rates as city auto owners. Now G.J. rolls in his crypt as to what has become of his beloved State Farm. It hurts his soul to see the greed, arrogance... — read more 

Hybrid Going away?

So I’m newly moved to a hub and have now spent a little over a year and a half going into the office one week a month. To me it’s terrible. Desks rarely operate at 100% (monitors, keyboards gone, CPU missing) and it is incredibly frustrating after... — read more 

New Year Wish!

SF was once a premier employer! We had awesome benefits including PSL, COLA, and performance cash/merit was excellent. We worked hard and played hard with many more good days than bad. If a member of leadership told you something you could pretty... — read more 

You play the game.....

SF has lived and died on "It's a business decision." Pulling out of California during the largest fire in history speaks volumes about their "All about me" attitude to both their employees and the customers. I hope they enjoy flying around in... — read more
