Pros

By far the best benefits out there. And there is definitely a work/life balance!

Cons

Very low salary. Only get to a respectable salary once you have put in 5+ years. And no matter how much overall work experience you have, they only count "State Farm" experience. So even if you are 20 years into your career, as soon as you step foot in State Farm so you treated and paid like a recent college grad.

Pros

Benefits Longevity Nice coworkers Decent pay over time

Cons

Current supervisor is very hard to interact with. We just don't click which makes it hard to want to work. My hours are not favorable. I work 3rd shift and have explained to my supervisor that the hours are not working for my family (husband and three children), but no solution is offered only that I may bid for a different work time in 8 weeks. There is no guarantee that I can get the hours I bid for since it is based on seniority. In my position, I am on the phones. My calls and screens are recorded and graded. Have to follow certain word tracks, ask certain questions with every call, not take too much time on a call or you will get a bad "grade." This is such a low paying position that has caused me much anxiety and high blood pressure as well as illness each week since I started. After having been back (this is my third time), I have found that they do not offer a career that I am interested in (health care - holistic).
