Do not forget all the horrible, immoral, dishonest, and illegal things SF had done to its employees and policyholders over the last 10 years. Its the same MT and PS running the company! They have not changed!!! These are not decent, good people!
All the schemes and scams to run off tenured employees, " we don't have the technology" to let people work from home. All the LOC and OC closing to force people into the high cost hubs where people barely scrape by to survive and pay their bills. THE BS severance packages. The horrible working conditions, micro-management, forced weekends and holidays when the customer does not demand it. Ohh and don't forget to manage your mental health, here is a on-line class! Claims is a joke and they have decimated Estimatics/field presence in Fire and Auto.
Everyone saw this coming....any out reach or "how can we help" is just that, complete and total BS. Everyone is sorry.....AFTER they get caught! Remember our Execs are lying as soon as they move their lips or send out a "we care" email! Do the minimum, do not drink the Kool Aid, use every single available day you have coming to you. Life Leave, CSES etc....STD!!!! You can't lie to a liar or steal from a thief! Treat the company with the exact same regard it has shown you!

They sure as heck didn't get to be #1 by being honest.
Sounds like previous poster is MT or an HR exec. You can tell by how absent minded they are.
Been with the Farm for more than 2 decades, only one TM, I would not wish to work for again. I have had 8-9 TM’s, 6 different positions. Current TM and SM are awesome people and leaders. I work with top notch, quality people where everyone pulls their weight.
Life isn’t fair, accept it. If some of you worked in our unit, I would push you to quit. Don’t need the whining, there is work to be done.
Quit your belly aching and either learn how to work, or GTFO.
I agree 100%
@1wye. Fine example of why I say life is so much better when you are NOT addicted to their kool aid aka rhetoric and believe everything that they say. Welcome being sober and away from the abuse.
I’m finally FREE!!! Took me a long time to have the courage, but the minute OT was brought up again the camels back broke…Best decision I have ever made!! I can finally be one of those people that can actually say they “Love their job”…I’m doing something I’ve wanted to do for a long time and I’m actually helping people and communities. I’m actually…wait for it…treated like an adult, quite the concept!! My stress level and unhappiness has done a 360, I honestly felt like one day my heart would break and I would drop dead with the headset on-No More!! My fellow SF peeps, please listen to your heart…there’s SO much more out there…you don’t deserve the way the company treats you. They don’t care, they’ve lost some very intelligent employees that had so much more to offer than chasing metrics. Good luck my friends, you deserve SO much more!!!
Things are they way they are because they work for Executive. They will not change things unless if it is to their benefit so there is no point getting worked up over it. If the mental costs exceed the financial benefits of staying look for greener pastures. That was the case with me so I left SF several years ago. I do not regret leaving for a second. Jobs are everywhere.
Each and every person that feels mistreated should plan an exit strategy. I know it is easier said than done but you gotta start somewhere with setting your plan in motion. During the 2015 re-org, I desperately wanted to leave but couldn't find anything that paid more at the time. In 2018 I left for another department hoping it will get better but it wasn't. In 2021 I left the SF for the best possible situation for me. I landed a government position with better pay, better pension, no cost health care, take home car, no micromanaging, no quotas, everyone is friendly and helpful. It felt like how SF was 20 years ago.
All the BS SF is doing, have been doing, have been mentioned in this forum so many times, it is like beating a dead horse. I don't think this place will get better at all. So the question is what are each and one of us are gonna do about it? Are we gonna endure the misery or take actions by planning an exit strategy and design our lives for the better?
It took me 6 years alone just to get the F outta here. I had worked at SF for over 15 years. The 6 long years was the time I needed to pay off my mortgage, save more cash so I could walk away from SF without worrying about taking any other cr---y job. Believe in yourself, believe in your talent, life is too short to subject yourself to any miseries.
The “mental health” support is so you learn to keep a cheerful demeanor going while the customers and management mistreat you everyday as you drown in work, but not really meant for you to manage your own wellbeing, dignity, or self-respect.
These people don't make the big bucks by being ethical or moral like they preach. If they don't care about the little guy, imagine how miserable their life really is.
Right on!! Truth be told indeed!
