Working at State Farm Insurance in New Haven, CT: 1 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in New Haven, CT Area

"Toxic environment with unnecessary pressure. Rates are always changing and State Farm rates are garbage. Would sign people up and they would call back in a month or two asking why there was a 20% increase in their bill. Pretty absurd business practices. Toxic work environment where they stated "We're just like a family!" When in reality you are just a spinning cog in the wheel. You will be miserable and surrounded by miserable people who complain about the customers they have to sell to and service. Cold calls are terrible conversion opportunities and the only people that are semi interested in going through a quote just do it to see how "your price compares." Don't sell your soul to this corporation that works off people not checking their premiums and why they go up. The software that employees are expected to use is ancient, has constant slowdowns and problems that don't allow for normal work to get done. My boss let a mean and hasty coworker train me who was abnormally angry to answer general questions and provided poor feedback."
