True? False? Anyone?

I’ve been with State Farm over 25 years and filed a claim. Hold time averaged 15 minutes and the actual call 45 minutes. Coverage and benefits explain d incorrectly, and at one point my claim was denied, due to it being 30 days post loss. The process... — read more 

If you're a mutual policyholder, please reply "yay" or "nay" and then ask all other mutual policyholders to do the same. The more votes we can aggregate here the better.

I’ve never seen so many people voice their opinions as I’ve seen in the “Ask the CEO” post. If leadership doesn’t make changes based off this feedback then they are beyond loss and this company will fail. Keep giving feedback and making your voice... — read more

Unexpectedly I've ended up on short term disability for the last couple weeks that I was supposed to be working at State Farm up until my qtd date. I missed their layoff workshop so I'm wondering if anyone else who has been laid off can tell me when... — read more 

Lack of insight and resistance to change of a type that is so omni present. Instead engineering their way out of this current crisis they choose the easiest way which is to jettison personnel. They are doing this without a deep understanding of the... — read more 

State Farm's mockery of insurtech, AI and bots is backfiring big time! To me, as a former employee, this just exposes State Farm for who they really are: an old and crusty company, set in their ways, and resistant to new technology. They sound like... — read more 

Anybody having anything to do with the system outage we have had for the last three days.

This is becoming unbearable.

The economy is moving to a manufacturing economy. Heck a truck driver makes more than management at SF. SF is no longer a career. It's a forigen country sweat shop call center.

I am not an employee, I am just curious. Did G.J. Mecherle family lost control of state farm?

Do you think that there is a correlation between the content of this topic and the need for a divorce attorney to advertise so boldly on this page?

Word came down today that P&C claims has a new hiring plan. From now on 75% of new hires will be external and 25% internal. The 75% won’t even be open to internals applying. Of course this excludes management. Another nail in the coffin of a once... — read more
