Pros
Mutual form of organization insulates the business from external forces, including fluctations in the stock market. One of State Farm's biggest strengths is its investment portfolio and ability to keep the promises made to policyholders.
Cons
Too big for its own good. Too often the right and the left hand don't know what each other are doing. Also, there are too many "silos" with the current form of organization.
