Pros
The pay is okay and benefits are good.
Kontras
Three words describe the current state of State Farm: Nepotism, Paranoia, Narcissism. The nepotism within the company ( A Fortune 50 company located in a city less than 100,000 people, who have families who’ve worked there for generations) breeds contempt from many of the less fortunate employees. But, when those who are lucky enough do get promoted, their bosses scare them into a mental illness state of paranoia to where they now promoting psychopaths into management that have nothing better than to do, but to have 1 on 1’s with you to tell you that you put too many periods or words in a claim file note. It’s a joke. They treat adults like children, regardless of age. Then, after they’ve been in management for a while, they become extreme narcissist. They know there is no where else that people can go in Bloomington, IL and make what they are making with those benefits. It goes without saying, mental illness on both sides of the spectrum runs rampant. There are wide reports of the former CEO being removed from campus due to an argument with how the new CEO has messed the place up. Under Ed Rust, it was a great company; he cared and lead!
