It's a good place to work for, but don't expect to be valued anymore than a cog in a machine.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Small, agile team that has almost 100% autonomy.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership is completely out-of-touch in terms of understanding technology.

What would you most like to see improved at your company?

Management has no technical understand of what my entire department does.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Work/life balance is respected. You are not expected to work more than 40 hours a week.

What do you like best about your company?

I have a lot of autonomy on my team to do the work I want to do.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I am a top-performer in my department, but I am compensated in the lower third of our pay scale.

What did you like most about the interview process?

Only two interviews: a phone interview with HR & then an in-person interview with the team I was being hired into.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Leadership at State Farm doesn't understand how to use technology to improve business at all. They are paralyzed by fear of network outages & therefore move extremely slow. In a tech dominated industry, this could be a fatal misstep.
