Up next for outsourcing is Human Resources!
If you work in a call center environment shape up your resume NOW. Since they reconfigured this area to function as "yes" people to leadership....not a big loss.

Many of the departments didn't really have much in the way of restructuring done. It was more about downsizing by removing mainly older workers who had higher salaries and benefits.
Since State Farm is downsizing its workforce, it makes sense to keep downsizing HR which is the main department that is scaled to match the number of employees.
Didn't they just have a restructuring about two years ago?
Cry me a River. Most systems and employees have to actually work and earn money and positions. Not get it handed to them via d-mb agile roles and tasks any high school student could do for huge pay and bonus and undeserved and uncultivated severance and pensions. Many miles the bu-t kissing nepotistic path a long time. Too long. People who actually work hard get ridiculed and treated like children for their gain. Wackos run systems and HR. When a head Manager of HR is hugging Elizabeth Warren in his Fbook profile page we knew the colony was in serious demise. While he got rich. Way to sell out!
Imagine an HRRecruiter being told there are still openings for those call center positions you could never fill fast enough....
HR is absolutely worthless. Talk about a department with way too many worthless people.
HR and management are synonymous at SF. Heck! They sleep with each other.
SF human resource is another waste of money. It make sense to get rid of them. The secretary does almost everything. HR just push a button.
Best to just go work at one of those companies that uses "US-based call centers" as main points in advertisements to its customers. Like the nice credit card companies (Discover, Amex), some brokerages (Charles Schwab, Fidelity), etc.
