Pros

Family friendly Work / life balance Excellent pay and benefits Excellent work atmosphere Very skilled and talented technical workforce Plenty of opportunity for advancement and careers to choose from

Cons

The corporate culture within State Farm confuses management with leadership. There are very few real leaders within senior management that people would willingly follow. Although there are certainly some great leaders, they are unfortunately the exception. Senior management will never own up to a bad decision. As a result, it creates an atmosphere where it's not ok to make mistakes and learn from them. Too many managers and directors don't understand the work they oversee.
