I've never seen slido comments so targeted towards execs with employee dissatisfaction. We have a record year of growth and Tipsord get's $20 million as a bonus and employees get a less than normal merit. Rumors of another transition plan in the works. People are tired. This State Farm is not the State Farm of old. We are the next GM. How long will our growth/success be determined from lower rates? When will lower rates no longer be viable?

I heard in the last exec briefing MT held that the reason for anonymity being removed was due to racist comments being posted in Yammer from a phone and IP they could not trace. True or False?
Hopefully we will get lectured again soon on yammer from our two leaders. That is awesome.
Whew. Time heals all wounds. All is very good now. Stay focused on the covid numbers.
To: All non-MG Internal Associates: The beatings will continue until morale improves. Signed, Management.
This last week it seems that IT exec has corralled to discuss the feedback they have gotten. Get ready for positive changes…or be prepared for the beatings.
That department is ready to combust. Lack of trust in leadership and worsening everyday.
HR and ET (leaders) labels folks who question anything troublemakers and slow
Says a lot about ET and who is running the show. Nasty. Stinks to high Heaven
Agenda driven projects are fake
Loved the come t about how MT and other execs and VPs “worked so hard” to get to where they are and deserve it.
Give me a break. The industry is corrupt. They apparently they all are on the same path. Gets them to where they want to be.
Nasty - Words are deceiving. And it starts at the top. Systems is the worst.
I watched it yesterday. He is so condascending and patronizing it makes me ill. Reminds me of a past abusive relationship where he makes you feel it is your fault.
Getting the feeling VO, Execs and Directors amd mgt and chairman’s council have choreographed messages and seem to lack reality in Theo positions as well as puppets in the industry and all in the same pool of funny money
Number one place may be cool marketing but the race to be a technocracy ran org shows how shallow the org is to its employees and policyholders.
The message is clear. No tough questions can be raised to et leadership. What has happened since vivify of getting run over when you question anything is now clear for all
Mutual Funds, Bank and Mortgage are an interesting conversation point, especially for agents. Many on here may wonder why most agents aren’t actively engaged there. Well…. many agents went all out trying to sell those products. As soon as they had a bit of success, the MF were pulled. Then SF decided that the product required far more time, effort, and compliance work than the meager compensation justified. So SF got out of the business but expected agents to stay in? Very similar story for Bank and Mortgage. If SF doesn’t think the business is worth it, why would an agent? People who do those products exclusively, full time, often struggle. I sure can’t do it on an extremely limited part time basis in between all the other junk that comes across my desk.
I will support everything my leader will do
Who would want to be or admit they are an exec at that agenda driven org??? Money and success do not mean folks are savvy or intelligent or wise
Remember that
Love all the exec comments and exec wannabes (always the same people) defending the elimination of anonymous comments and thanking them for such great leadership and vision. …. Ba-f.

Truth. When NFL was mentioned in the forum my ears turned off
Your right on Target.
Wow is right. Reaction to questions even more telling. Good opportunity to suck up to leadership
Everyone still seems to be showing up to cash the paycheck??? Must not be that bad if u don’t like it leave
How can someone type so many words, yet not mean anything?
Exploitation and optimization baby-gets us to maximization nirvana.
Einstein & AI
Not telling the full story and sounds cool but reality is it’s surveillance capitalism & exploitation. Omni channel, AWS paving the way. SF amf
It’s systems 3rd parties a old its clients and employees out a long time ago.
Research and listen closely and see who all is $$ involved.
Agenda driven deceit and insurance has gone to far far exploitive tactics to predict and track amd push and profile every individual and policyholder. The security and risk amd cloud rhetoric and narrative just proves the point. $$
Leadership has their $$ and 💩hands in the system/data share and does not even understand the big picture & the Fake technocratic procurement and Eutopia they are building for “younger” and brainwashed employees and policyholders all consumers consumers.
They equally don’t understand the risks to innocent and poor people and country as a whole.
They want elites at Farm and only those targeted policyholders. They want young amd seasoned puppets and tools. Many Many roles in Systems get paid way way too much for what they are executing amd programming people to think & accept. It’s not “leadership.” It’s a paid for agenda & industry, data amd communications industry con
The agenda is not the “1 SF”. It’s Rhetoric and narratives like “digital end user experience and personalization & AI” sound exciting and cool especially to 3rd party integrators, sales folks, marketing and systems folks. Light minds lead farm.
Agents and employees should research what they are pulling you into and who and what truly is involved. Think deeper. Not like list of SF.
Real big picture thinkers, smart consumers that understand how things really and those that understand tech & data and leads and how it is exploited $$. Get it…. It’s truly a 3rd party show at consumers and agents a expense.
Using state and local and country and federal corruption to enable it.
A shallow industry and becoming a data monopoly calling it for the public good. It’s all at consumers and policyholders expense
Big tech is not all it seems. Trolls need not respond. Your foolishness amd shallowness shine through.
Sc--w unions. They’ll be the next overlord over us. I’m in a right to work state. I’d rather die than unionize
You mean you dont like or trust the lawyer from the unaccredited schools?
Agents call and act like they are subject matter experts and when things change they are like when did that change. At this point time to move forward with experts Amen.
Id--t agents are what we have now, illusion of massive renewal compensation. Oh that’s coming to an end, most don’t even work anymore. It’s sad to see some that couldn’t even plan for there own retirement. Looks like car wash has a opening.
Everyone already knows it’s the direct model unless u are an id--t 10% less to go direct!!!!
Major cut on renewal comp coming on agency comp going to be driven off mostly new first year, better not buy anything big it’s going to be a monumental change, it’s all about the future. When u don’t talk to anyone in years and they just keep
Paying their renewals every year what did you expect!! Toad head
They aren’t pushing mutual funds, bank mortgage for nothing good luck bro gravy train coming to an end. T-boy hates agents
Love the id--ts who know nothing about agency, wouldn’t have the guts to try agency, but feel qualified to tell agents how to do it.
Agency better start sand bagging T-man coming and it’s all about the money. Hope agents sack some $$$ away it’s going to hurt.
House is on fire, 20mill basically said suck it
What a train wreck it’s like the walls are closing in everyday. AI and India call centers are working like flushing the toilet
What a disgrace. That meeting showed the disconnect between exec and ET workers. At least we have one exec with IT knowledge. The other just won the lotto and is in way too deep. Everyday it shows that we have somebody without a clue.
Yeah….cause history shows that unions fix everything🙄. If you really want to see somebody have control over you and treat you like refuse…..try union leaders. Oh, and you even get to pay them for the privilege.
When the balance of power is this significant and executives make it clear that you do not matter - the only way to get a seat at the table and to have some strength to negotiate on the terms and conditions of your job is to join together. UNION. It is time.
