Pros

The Company truly cares about their customers and provides a needed servcie to the community. The products offered can really affect someone's life and well being. Insurance as an industry has taken a beating frmo the general public, but State farm really does try to settle claims in a fast and fair manner.

Cons

Sometimes the promotion opportunites appear to be made on a politcial basis rather than on a truly competitive basis due to merit. There are often clashes between the operations side of the business and the agency side, with the agency side getting more satisfaction and attention and money to solve their problems.

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
