Co-worker competence is good for the most part, State Farm's places value on the work/life balance,Company gives matches for the 401(k) plans , the State Farm is committed to its policy holders, the product speaks for itself.

Cons

State Farm promotes an enviorment of favortism and opportunitiesare only given to to those management favor, Seniority is overlooked and having a great work product is ignored, only those management favor get the opportunties. Poor hiring practices, the training is substandard,retailition/blacklisting against employees who speak up is common practice. Management absenteesim & corporate poltics is the norm. Diversity insentivity is common place, management only supports certain groups not all protected groups.

Pros

State Farm has an excellent company culture. If you are bright, articulate and mobile you can go far with this company.

Cons

Mobility is a must for upward advancement and development is generally left for those few folks that happen to be mobile. That results in leaders who are the "best of the mobile" instead of the best of the best.
