How long you all been with the company? Does layoffs usually affect claims too? I see they still have many openings and currently doing layoffs?

• Operator: Thank you for calling the FBI. Can I have a spelling of your first and last name please?
• Caller: First name is J, O, S, E. Last name is C, A, Z, A, R, E, Z.
• Operator: Thank you for that. Date of birth you provided was 8:31. You're reporting to the FBI today.
• Caller: So I like to report a, I guess national security threat by the CEO of State Farm, John Furneau.
• Operator: National security threat by the CEO of State Farm. What exactly is he doing?
• Caller: Not his job apparently if I'm over here calling you. I've been having non stop issues with this company. Um, so pretty much in the beginning of the year around January 31st, I got into a car collision of, via attempted mu---r and with State Farm over like a 3,000 dollar repair. They falsified the records to up the value to 9,000 totally my vehicle. And then afterwards I called my handler like multiple times.
• Operator: Oh, sorry, sir. Sorry, what, sir? At this time, contact an attorney. Thank you for calling.

7 roles eliminated. Meeting us happening as we speak. I called this 6 months back.

There’s a lot of talk about PIPs and I was just wondering if anyone in Europe has successfully perused a claim against IBM in their labour court or similar?

I’d be surprised if not becuase there seems to be a lot of PIPs in Europe despite it being illegal.

Anybody ever filed a claim for STD for mental health, how is Lincoln financial with process? How long did it take? If not for mental health, how long was the process in general?

What am I missing?

How can we possibly be in October and still have claims from January unprocessed? How can that be allowed or legal? If I talk to Operations at all, there are still 7 different leaders for the 7 different LOBs we have. How could we let this happen where they could maintain the SBU set up in core? Makes no sense and is inefficient.

The whole point was to consolidate and they are as split up as ever. And, according to what I've heard, apparently every possible metric that the Association measures us on is at all time lows. When will anyone be held accountable for this unbelievable execution?

I can't find anyone who is helpful over there.

WNY claims dept is combined with bluecard home and host claims now. All employees in this department are cross trained. Rumor is union meeting the end of the month to advise of reduction in wf in this dept by half...can anyone confirm or deny this?

Retiree here. Sitting in hospital bed near Zurich, looking out window and landed on idea of “universality of kindness and compassion in manner that does not require translator” regardless of situation for face to face interactions. Idea came about due to broken hip I sustained on 9 11 and the unending compassion I have received. Think about where retention and customer sat could go if all of Claims was ready to bring to life daily. They do good job, how is it made great?What prevents this from happening? Claims staff have opportunity
To be angels to customers in keen time of need. Ps. Not seeking sympathy as I will be fine. Seeking intelligent chat on needed actions.

Forms went out to a lot of areas at different levels asking about ability and willingness to travel internationally. This being a part of their roles expanding. Asking about if they have passports and ability to obtain and how soon they can get passports. Heard that even lower level production roles were advised of the additional international travel as part of their roles. Our area of claims were provided the details and forms for this regarding our specific roles. Personally with my kids this is not an option for me.

When did Allstate start using a company called Pilot by Robert E Uhler License 4028069 to handle personal auto policy liability claims? I didn’t know we contracted out our LdU claims.

I’ve heard he is a talented claims executive who makes sure workers are taken care of.

Got word yesterday that enough people took the vsp so we were all safe……for now. Any idea if Centene will do another round of layoffs after today? Im surprised our roles weren’t outsourced to illiterate overseas cheap a** laborers

Im not one that was vsp eligible, however with all the changes going on i checked my schedule in NICE IEX and i cant see anything past September 4th! Ive never had a reason to check my schedule until now. And no it has not always been that way where it shows up last minute. Im seeing lots of people being let go around that time. I havent gotten an email or teams meeting its just business as usual for my team. Im in the claims call center. My question is…..

Should i reach out to HR and ask why i cant see my schedule? My supervisor wont tell me anything

Centene: We're "streamlining operational efficiency" and "mission simplify" and blah blah blah by investing in AI!!! (For example, the new contracts with Cognizant.)

Also Centene: Let's post a cr-p ton of Claims Analyst openings in Workday!!!

Unless I'm missing something, is this not contradictory?

Which departments are most likely to be affected? Can any claims analysts that took the vsp tell us what their separation date is? I am under claims and just want to feel like I can breathe again.

What happened in Claims a few weeks ago? Heard there may have been some senior officers departing? Performance, or is this an exercise in flattening the leadership structure and cutting costs?

And so it begins .....

I was laid off in June and filed UI with my state, it was initially approved but 3 weeks later got 2 consecutive letters in which contain wrong info. about my work hours, apparently freaking Dell initially told the state I worked 2800 hours in the base year, when state asked them for clarification, they send first 1400 hours then later change to 0, what a f**king incompetent company this!

If we get caught denying 49% of home insurance claims, why are we continuing to lay people off when we obviously put resources into 51% of the claims we accept??? Are there people out there just do nothing????

Farmers Insurance confirmed job reductions last month. At least 350 positions were cut. These layoffs impacted personal and commercial auto, claims, and distribution. Smaller reductions also happened in 2025. These included auto repair, training staff, and commercial lines.

Based on the way the VSP is written, will an unemployment claim be approved? Assuming yes, when should you file the unemployment claim?

Vermont's initial weekly unemployment claims rose slightly. For the week ending June 13, 2026, 324 new claims were reported. This figure represents an increase of 38 from the prior week. Manufacturing and the service industry comprised the majority of these claims. The state's Unemployment Trust Fund remains well-capitalized at $334.3 million.

So...Serafin's departure email just hit. Was in there for less than a year, and just moved to San Antonio. Clyde left a dingle berry of a mess from Op Model AND move to Guidewire. If you objected to the simultaneous switch, you were labeled as "not a team player". But when you watch senior officers leaving on their own, it is acceptable to not be a kool aid drinker. Here we go again with switching gears/strategy as new 'direction' is given. A years worth of work thrown away. Missed family events were for nothing.

What is this huge push all about? Why are they closing claims they know will reopen?

Some rumors/rumblings that there was a "walk out/log out" in protest in parts of Claims today. Any word on what that was about and the extent of?

On Employees that are fully remote in claims with no offices? Are they moving the jobs to the hubs or no, and staying fully remote?

For everyone that works for State Farm, you're not doing your job! You have to cancel all your State Farm policies and tell everyone you know how horrible this place is. Especially friends and family. I can't understand why anyone, especially in claims, would ever give a penny to State Farm. Are you blind to see the useless DEI, woke, ethics-less workforce and Executive leadership? This place and its service is pure trash. Yes, I will take their money for a job, while I'm looking for another job, but I will never give them a single dime. I tell anyone I can what this place is, just pure trash! Cancel your policies, and go find another job!

State Farm Drones & AI.

This is interesting, but not just State Farm.

Writing my “ambitious” goals this past week had me feeling 1000% unqualified and diminished in my job. Like they are asking us to figure out how to make an 8 day work week.
Which got me thinking, how many medical LOAs do you think the bank will see this year? Mental health reasons? I have to believe this number will rise this year based on the mental health downfall many are feeling from all of the impossible pressure. And if that number does in fact rise, what does it take for someone to take notice and take action? (And I don’t mean internal leadership.) I mean an external intervention. Does anyone watch those sorts of claims against a company?

*S Labor Department Reports Jobless Claims Remain Low at 200,000
by MSN News:

https://www.msn.com/en-in/news/world/us-jobless-claims-steady-at-200000-in-sign-of-low-layoffs/ar-AA1UK1Gb

US initial jobless claims rose slightly to 200,000 last week. This figure, for the week ended January 17, indicates a labor market with limited layoffs. The four-week moving average of new applications fell to a two-year low of 201,500. Continuing claims also dropped to 1.85 million, the lowest since November. Federal Reserve officials are widely expected to maintain current interest rates next week.

I have heard that Dow is such a mess that they are sending employee overpayments to collections!! The people they eliminate, then over pay a couple hundred dollars. I've watched them overpay suppliers by millions, not pursue claims in the hundred thousands but go after unemployed ex workers for a couple hundred. Shame on you Dow.

AIG claims is a complete sweatshop. The senior VP and the VP under him are as toxic. Steer clear. They say they have a commitment to a field claims team and Friday they just announced they're taking all the cars away from the field claims team. How do you say you have a commitment to a field claims team and then take away the cars and not give a car allowance to the field claims team. As soon as the STI bonuses paid at the end of February the entire field claims team is gone.
