"I love the interaction with people and the opportunity to design a solution that works for them. It doesn't matter whether it was a big department job or a input form for a single secretary. It feels great to do something for someone that makes their job easier and helps the company at the same time. I like seeing a smile come to someone's face when you lighten their load. No matter how small it seems to others."

"Daily challenges lead to constant opportunities to make an impression."

What do you like about working at AmSurg?

"Growing organization with mature senior management that understands the necessary changes necessary for company culture to keep pace with technological advancements and organizational growth. New annual review process is step in the right direction, as is new HRIS system. Annual bonus and employee referral plans are generous, and company is looking at reworking 401(k) plan. New health program rewards employees for being active and healthy. Plenty of challenges (fires) to keep one busy!

Company has outgrown it's current lease and is now split into three different buildings in the Nashville area (but is planning to consolidate with a move in 2014). Internal communication has improved recently, but can still cause issues. Top talent is not always retained due to a reluctance to promote from within."

"I'd like to see an annual retreat or convention to connect regional offices and traveling employees, as well as break down departmental silos."

Business Analyst at State Farm Insurance
in Bloomington, IL

Please give us a one liner to describe this review.

"My experience at State Farm was enjoyable and enhanced my knowledge and skill set."

What do you like about working at State Farm Insurance?

"I liked having the opportunity to learn and grow on the job at State Farm. The ability to learn and implement new technologies as a part of my work while creating meaningful documents and training content that enabled the smooth function of the very large, corporate IT division was enjoyable work. However, I desire relocation to the Nashville area to be closer to my father, who recently suffered a stroke."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"It is important to be knowledgeable in your field, friendly, personable, professional, articulate, and a fast, critical thinker in order to successfully interview with and gain employment at State Farm. Sharpening interview skills via careful preparation of documents and responses to detailed questions regarding qualifying skill sets is a great idea!"

What don't you like about working at State Farm Insurance?

"Vertical communication within State Farm is slow and overly congested. While this can be typical for large organizations (State Farm's corporate headquarters hosts more than 17,000 employees), the result is that simple requests and communiques can become lost or receive painfully slow responses that negatively impact work flow. This was my least favorite part about working at State Farm."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"State Farm management should simplify and ease internal, vertical communication by creating a strong, lateral communication structure that includes checks and balances that can enable workers to gain approvals and/or access as needed, without waiting for responses from far-removed colleagues who are higher up the command chain."
