Pros

State Farm fosters a culture of family and growth. They promote and hire from within. It is a very familiy atmosphere.

Cons

A little to State Farm cutlured. Because many of the employees and management have not worked at other companies, they tend not to be "real world".

Pros

- secure job - ability to move around to different departments / offices - nice rewards for pursuing educational/insurance designations

Cons

State Farm as a whole operates in a passive-aggressive fashion, without the ability to resolve conflict in a healthy manner. Departments operate in silos, the result of which is very poor communication, turf-wars, and duplication of work efforts as normal behavior. State Farm's top management and Executives have worked here for their entire career, and are well-versed in perpetuating the dysfunctional corporate culture, but not very good at being leaders. There are no consequences for poor performance, and those of us who do try to make a difference are treated as being difficult. Unfortunately, good workers don't generally have the skills for long-term employment in a negative, politically charged bureaucracy.
