Safeco Bought by Liberty Mutual; Liberty Mutual Field next?
This morning’s news that locally headquartered Safeco Insurance Company was bought by Boston based Liberty Mutual has sports fans wondering if we’ll see a name change at Safeco Field. Not likely, according to the AP:
Monfried said Safeco would retain its 85-year-old brand name and continue selling policies through its national network of agents and brokers.
What this may mean for local jobs is still uncertain. And what happens to their infamous dress code?
Update: Apparently, I need to pay better attention to the dress code policies of our local businesses; Safeco dropped their white shirt and tie policy in 1996, according to Dylan.

The "infamous" dress code has been gone for a long, long time. They dropped the white shirt requirement in 1996.
