Claims Associate Express - Claims Associate - Express State Farm Employee Review

Overall, I was ranked a 3-3; PA3; 0 Points with a bachelors in business administration and a masters in business administration while working on my CPCU and I’ve decided to MOVE ON from StateFarm. I’ve done multiple training bridge classes throughout the 2 years I was employed here, and could not land one internal promotion. I’ve applied to over 10 positions internally and only was able to interview for 1. They’ve denied me for the promotion(why I’ve got denied? I’m quite not sure and frankly didn’t care to ask.. I had the actual interview questions and role play scenario and still got denied for a 41,000/yr job...... a joke right). I was making around 39,000/yr with an MBA and in good standing with my licensing. I’ve decided to leave because of another competing company offered me 65,000/yr. I wanted to stay at StateFarm because I loved the people I was around daily and the atmosphere I worked in, but overall upper management brain washes you to become a stationary robot answering calls. I was more qualified than majority of the ‘team managers’, and still couldn’t even get to the specialist level. I would only recommend this company to a starting individual who has no college degree, but wants to get into the insurance business. Be very cautious of how you perform your daily task/work, as they will fire you based on a report they run if your name shows up on these reports. They will not even give you a chance to explain yourself; they will walk you out the door the first time your name is on the report. This job has no job security what so ever. They say they do not have layoffs — but they’ve laid off two of my section managers who were there 25+ years. They will advise they don’t have layoffs at the associate/specialist level, but they will try and cut you if your 5 mins late. StateFarm would rather hire people off of the street than to promote within as it’s cheaper for the company. You will have specialist dealing with fatality claims who never ever stepped a foot into a claim platform before in their life. StateFarm’s policy holders are steadily declining while their rates continuously increase which is causing this company to slowly fall a part. Overall, if your an insurance professional —- You know to stay away from the farm. —————————————————— They micromanage everything, they try to cost cut everything, attendance policy, no opportunity for growth, you become living robots, undertrained, to many rules and procedures, team environment, no recognition/awards, poor raises, and no promotion opportunities.
