Pros

Annual bonus, and the friendships I’ve made with my peers. That’s pretty much it.

Cons

Everything. We were consistently over worked, underpaid, treated like children rather than professionals, were reprimanded and chided for the smallest errors, and management doesn’t care about anyone but themselves. State Farm is currently undergoing leadership changes which destabilized pretty much every operation, and the message trickling down from the top to claims since Jan 2025 after the bad PR about the LA wildfires, is that *we* (in claims???) were the ones who are supposed to “own” their mistake and fix it. Anyways, State Farm stopped being the “#1 insurer” in the United States in 2025 and management and executives have been scrambling because they are hemorrhaging money, and they are not attracting new policyholders to assist in offsetting the financial demands of claims. Instead of realizing their own moral, ethical, and legal failings in communities they were supposed to help protect, they blame claim adjusters. Two other things that I will say with no additional info and you can fill in the blanks: 1) They are overly gung-ho about AI in claims adjusting/handling 2) They are actively trying to purge remote lines right now as well, so anyone who is a fully remote worker has a target on their back

Pros

(At the time) Fair pay and predictable bonus structure They were pretty good at covering travel expenses and paying them back quickly Diverse workforce & diversity initiatives Fun and funny coworkers Opportunities for growth Again, this was all four years ago and has likely changed

Cons

(At the time and now, according to other comments) Arrogant to a fault Total lack of innovation & willingness to innovate Odd attachment to the company's past (which prevents progress) High number of veterans (20+ years) who are determined to get that retirement money, and therefore, are resistant to change and technology Heavy reliance on command and control management style Poor decision-making that leads to losses of all kinds
