Thread regarding State Farm Insurance layoffs

Not just State Farm

Here's what SF people aren't getting. This isn't all about SF, it's going on across the entire industry and economy. We are losing policies because people are broke, not because they're suddenly deciding to switch to the competition.

People are losing their jobs, getting hours cut, etc, etc.

JUST LIKE US....

Open your eyes, think.

Three of these are commercial drones.

Also, wasn't ECS an Accenture creation?

Does this guy even have any clue what he is talking about?

Interesting that this guy has basically outed himself with his life story. Tell me, which area in State Farm has "section managers." Is it claims?

Yep. That's our troll alright. He has a very limited vocabulary so his posts are easy to spot. Use a thesaurus or something. And take a typing test.

Hey HR - here you go! Your department were little turds when it came to me coming in for job interviews, SMUG, NASTY IDIOTS! AN HR person even chuckled, after I took my typing test. The JEB's test was a JOKE!

Everybody take a good look at the text I've quoted, above. This guy is our resident troll (the one who keeps saying nasty things about Systems every five minutes and posting ridiculous rumors about Tipsord).

I speculated months ago that he'd had his a-- handed to him by SF HR and was bitter about it. Case closed.

This guy is living in the past and is a small, bitter man.

I believe ECS took State Farm 10 + years to develop, and cost the company BIG BUCKS... it was a huge waste of time, money, resources. State Farm could have paid for software from a company that does this for a living, but they were to smart, and smug for their own good. When the finished product came out, it looked like a throw back from years ago when technology first started developing, IE Atari vs PlayStation 4. Stupid classes like FISH, phone Dr, classes on what not to say or do, such s--xual harassment, when most of the time it was management from top to bottom level who needed the classes. Justifying their own jobs, for golden parachutes, and telling us in team meetings that they want to "get rid of the SLUGS" - nice way to refer to your employees, and that was from the BIG MOUTH of s section manager. Or spending time having fairs, such as Founders Day, where they would make fun of the competition, and waste time and money, or Halloween where one of the teams all the women dressed as prostitutes, or lets not forget classes where we were given team building tests that had physiological questions which were the same or similar questions for identifying ADHD. My favorite was the fair where lubricant and condoms were given out, this from a company worried about s-xual harassment. Management who did not know what the systems could do or not do, along with thinking they knew who did a great job and who was slacking. Waste your $$ State Farm, it wont be long. Phone monitoring by management, who would put totally wrong notes in regarding a phone call, and then refused to correct their mistakes as it would take too long. BTW demeaning people, monitoring their every move, including bathroom times, etc has cost this company a lot. Unfortunately they are now a BAD NEIGHBOR to customers for poor claims handling, and employees for treating them like dirt!

The OP is either very dumb or just makes outrageous statements as click bait.

The economy is as strong as it’s been in a while. We’re losing policies to Progressive and Geico like gangbusters and they’re growing like crazy. So no, not everyone is broke or laying off employees!

See, it's this sort of thread that makes me think the people who run this website are up to silly shenanigans. The OP posts something that is easily verifiable as false and even doubles down on it, knowing it will generate posts (aka free content for the website) and more traffic, hence more ad revenue.

And this is about the fifth time this particular nonsense has been posted. It's right up there with "Hey my Dad is freaking out what's going on at State Farm," and "You all deserve to be fired so stop whining."

SF is doing fine. Tipsord just bought 5 new jets. Look it up it’s on the FAA. It boils down to a leader put in charge that has no leadership skills. He is unfaithful to ALL!!!! If you cannot trust a leader I say leave.

Here's a link that shows that layoffs in the U.S. during 2017 were at historic lows, all during a period of time when State Farm was the only insurance company on the top 10 layoffs list.

Wait, the OP said All-state is laying off people? All I could find was an article in the Chicago tribune that said they laid of 500 people last year. 500. If it's more than that, please post a source. Otherwise it pails in comparison to the thousands of people SF laid off last year.

However, I did find THIS article from this year saying that All-State is hiring was SF is laying off.

Interesting example there, OP.

Wait, the OP's proof of other insurance companies laying people off are OTHER forums on THIS website?

LOL. This clown tried this nonsense a few weeks ago, claiming lay-offs at Progressive. So I went over there and checked it out and the only post at the time had been MOVED from the State Farm forum to over there.

Seriously, let's see a listing of the following from a reputable source:

1) number of layoffs at SF over the last two years as compared to other insurance companies

2) number of policies lost at SF over the last two years as compared to other insurance companies

OP, you're embarrassing yourself. The challenge offered to you as (and I quote) "Go find me one insurance company (just one) laying off as many people as State Farm, or losing policies at this rate.

You didn't even attempt to broach the "losing policies" question, which was central to your thesis, so I assume you're admitting defeat on that front.

As far as the lame figures you offered for a couple of other insurance companies, they too missed the mark.

Here's an article from 2017 in Time that shows that State Farm was ranked #4 for layoffs. They were the ONLY insurance company on the list:

http://time.com/money/4914070/these-are-the-12-employers-who-have-laid-off-the-most-workers-this-year/

And if you do just a little research, you'll see the story is the same for this year.

The industry that's truly struggling is retail. Not insurance.

It's not about people losing jobs it's the fact that state farm is ran by a bunch of morons. They waste so much money on bs example sh--ty commercials I see on every sports channel. How about offering better rates and being competitive. I'm switching my car and home insurance to county companies this week and can't wait

Oh look, and here's The Travelers with mass layoffs too, all within the past year or less.

Children react with insults and mocking before checking their facts, just like you guys.

Too bad you guys don't do 2 mins of research before shooting your mouths off. All I did was check this site, Nationwide. Should I go find more to further humiliate you?

So the OP's theory is that people are too broke to insure their cars or homes?

Sorry holmes, that's a lie.

Are you a member of Tipsord's PR team?

None of what you've just posted is true. Progressive is on a hiring spree. Go find me one insurance company (just one) laying off as many people as State Farm, or losing policies at this rate.
