Not what it used to be - Team Manager State Farm Employee Review

They place more and more work on the first line managers plate with no consideration for work life balance. They ask the managers to observe 20-30 year employees for half a day to find opportunities for coaching. After 30 years you probably know what you’re doing. Only one person can be off from a team at a time unless there is a medical reason. They are now very numbers driven, yet don’t provide tools that work to help you achieve your goals. Every new technology item they roll out has a glitch or doesn’t work right. If you submit an idea for consideration to help things improve, it goes into a black hole. Maybe 1-2% of ideas get looked at. You are reapplying for your job every 2-3 years. Due to this moral is low and people are feeling undervalued or replaceable. If you don’t live in the right area, you can forget about keeping your job. You won’t get an offer if you reapply.
