I keep hearing different things about who will get an assessment, when they will find out, when they will actually take it, etc. I even saw a post showing to content or sections of the assessment. I was wondering if anyone knew the format it will be... — read more
Who Controls Allstate?
Both past and present. How did those currently in control come into power and why are they acting with such callous disregard for loyal employees and American people? Why are they so deceitful and two faced? This is just wrong and” they” should be... — read more

Another long time customer
I am another long time customer and wanted to see why Allstate employment was trending on Twitter.... The animosity of the employees that I see here does not make me as a customer feel that I am in good hands....particularly what I am reading on... — read more
Wow
As a long time Allstate customer I feel terrible about what this company is doing to its employees if it’s true about what I am reading. I really really hope that it’s not true but I understand they want to lower our premiums which is great because... — read more

Those on the inside
Non Allstate employee here...but a customer with Allstate. The only thing that I know is that I pay a lot for insurance but have never had a claim so I don’t know what the service is like when they need to pay out money. If we are getting ripped off... — read more
You’re in Good Hands as long as you’re a shareholder or top executive.
This company is ridiculous. They don’t care about their long term dedicated employees or customers or transparency. If they did they wouldn’t be forcing them to take assessments in an effort to keep their jobs and would recognize and honor their... — read more

I can’t take it anymore!
The waiting is k–ling me! If and when it happens, do they let you know and walk you to the door? Or do they give you like two months notice?
Sales Department Impact?
Does anyone know if the sales department will be impacted? Especially in regards to those Esurance employees who are slowly being transitioned to Allstate?
Unethical and cheap
For a company that prides itself on doing what is right and ethical, there are some extremely shady business dealings going on. The Government/Trump tax cuts not reinvested back into the company, and a May (during quarantine) 300+ million stock... — read more

Any mass firings yet?
I was fired in auto last week for not making a phone call that I documented and made. I asked them to pull the phone records and the response was, that’s not necessary. This supposed breaking of the “code of ethics” happened 3 months ago. So, I... — read more

Old Pension...wait for interest rates to be announced in Sept

Allstate is toxic
I feel terrible for those with tenure. I was in and out of that toxic corporation within 5 years. It is a toxic, unhealthy place to work, much less try to represent. It feels “dirty” to work for a company with no moral compass, while seeing the... — read more
