Former Employee – worked at State Farm full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – Even though I worked for an agent and not directly for State Farm, the support is there and you can tell they care. I enjoyed most company functions and they people there.

Cons – Some of the expectations of a small, scratch agency can be a bit unrealistic. I don't think there is anything wrong with lofty goals but hitting a certain number of applications in one year for just one line of insurance shouldn't make or break your entire career.

Advice to Senior Management – It's great to celebrate and reward the agents when things are going good - this is not an excuse to berate them or play mind games when numbers are down.

Former Employee – worked at State Farm part-time for less than a year

Pros – Friendly, conducive, and nurturing work environment. A great platform to build experience, skill-set, knowledge, develop meaningful connections with fellow employees, and impress decision makers. A great true stepping stone to move forward in your professional trajectory.

Cons – Slightly far from campus. Less team work and more individual work so you'll have to make an effort to get to know your colleagues. Interns are given the scope of their project at the beginning of the internship and their progress is monitored throughout the semester. It might be a bit difficult to balance work and school but work is flexible and interns manage their own schedule.

Advice to Senior Management – More monitoring of interns- biweekly reports of progress. More ice breaking activities between interns.
