Pros
Work/Life Balance is great at State Farm. I think the company does attempt to create policies that treat employees well. The pay is fair considering the work. I'm not sure that is the case in all departments, but it is in systems.
Kontras
The systems department nurtures and grows mediocre performance from its IT staff. Not enough challenges! You are placed into a 'role' that is responsible for a sliver of the project or a sliver of the service work. If you want a job where you will gain enough knowledge about IT and systems that you can really grow your career, this is probably not the best place for you. I say probably because some people really succeed in this company, but it is very difficult. You would need to move around a lot to other areas. On the other hand if you like to surf the Internet, there are many ‘roles’ that have that kind of free time.
