State Farm to Leave Downtown Bloomington

State Farm employees are leaving the insurer's downtown building by the end of the month.

The Pantagraph reports State Farm informed local officials about the decision during phone calls Thursday afternoon.

Despite this move, the company plans to continue to call Bloomington home with its 15,000 local employees.

This comes as the company redefines itself into a modern workplace, a move that includes condensing its IT departments, realigning management, offering buyouts and redesigning space at its corporate and south headquarters.
