I feel anxious about the possibility that one day they might tell me I'm not needed here anymore because I'm no longer a young employee who can easily find a good, stable job elsewhere. On the other hand, getting cut might be a great relief for me... — read more
The Lifers are holding the place together
They know who to ask for help and how to cut through obsfucation, if it is possible. They also know what to do with the numerous oddball tasks that come up (you know the ones that we get and go “what the heck does that mean?”) Allstate would love to... — read more
Tom does care
If you were his friend or family member in real life and your were struggling financially, he would be the first to help you out. Also, if your son or daughter was getting married, and you couldn’t afford it, he would probably volunteer to pickup... — read more
Don't quit!
Sometimes I wonder if management has found this page and is posting some of the stuff that's encouraging people to leave on their own. The only one who would benefit from that is the company. They save on severance if you walk away on your own. The... — read more
Their goal is to paint a picture that we are failing employees
It’s a sick circle. They hand out plans and targets that are impossible to achieve. Lower managers won’t protest that in fear for their own head, but rather try to compensate by “beating” the employees to do more work. In the end the goals cannot be... — read more
Layoffs and more changes coming
In the next few weeks there will be announcement on a few of the methods Allstate gets new customers, this will result in many recruiters not having a job to do. There will be an increased push to move more claims jobs overseas shortly too. This is... — read more
Have they lost control?
Aside from the fact that I don’t think Allstate cares much about people leaving, sometimes it seems to me that leadership has completely lost control of the company.
Disgusting and sick
Billions (yes that is billions) of dollars has been wasted in paper transactions to make the stock look better. Money that could have been used to benefit policyholders and employees being spent for NOTHING!!! As this recession hits, Allstate stock... — read more
The whip is coming out
You Allstate claims employees better be ready… After looking at the terrible numbers announced today, you gonna be huddling all day and your leader is typing your UN as I type this post… No severance coming….just a humiliating and disrespectful end... — read more
From todays conference call
Allstate paid over one billion dollars in stock repurchases in the first quarter alone…. The rise of the stock has never been about the performance of the company…it is bought and paid for by the company…. When you want to hide your faltering... — read more
Who will replace Wilson?
Who will be the next CEO? Who will replace Wilson?
Allstate isn’t breaking any laws.
At least Tom and Glenn have enough integrity to do everything legally.
Layoff
This site has been deleting posts everyday. No free speech here
Metrics
BI Adjuster here. I feel like Big Blue is sending a strong message with the new metrics they came out with, which are almost unobtainable. I'm talking about closure rates and the reduced amount of time you have to work a demand. These new... — read more
Don't wait for severance
I know many who hoped and still hope to be paid to leave. However, it seems to me that there will be no severance pay here for a long time? For now, Allstate has found a way to get rid of employees without giving them a package. No sense in wasting... — read more
Just one
Can any of you blue bleeders or HR reps tell me one positive thing transformative growth has done to benefit our customers?
Home office?
When does it open back up? We need to stop the WFH, it's ki----g the company!
What now?
Before I left in March 2022, my CSL hinted many more changes were coming. I already knew it was time to jump ship as the BI job I had barely resembled the job I was hired for. I know benefits were ransacked, processes were constantly changing, and... — read more
The work culture is the worst
I could live with earning less than the industry standard, I could even live with losing some of the benefits, but what I can't live with is this work culture. It is both cliquish and depressing. There are people who are part of the 'club' who will... — read more
Gotta feel back for Tom and Glenn…ALL at $128
You gotta have an BIT of sympathy for the Several hundred thousand dollars these guys have lost as the share price has fallen.
The General to buy Allstate
Shaq is ceo starting tmmw
Tesla Insurance
Elon needs to buy Allstate gut it and clean house and rebrand. It would be the greatest insurance tech company in the world.
I work in ASDU. I'm just wondering what makes claims so bad
This isn't a post for or against claims. I'm generally curious what makes you hate the job. Is it the customers, management, or something else?
Are there any healthy departments here at all?
That's what I would love to know.
Allstate down to $128
Crazy how much it’s tanking… Poor Glenn and Tom
Do yourself a favor
If anybody who is considering joining (since I know we're hiring right now) is reading this, this is a warning aimed directly at you. If you care about having any dignity, walk away before it's too late. Allstate and its management will treat you... — read more
Anyone else thinks that Allstate is not far from being sold?
I hear more and more speculation that Allstate could be sold eventually.
Sending jobs overseas
Allstate's drive to cut costs and maximize profits by outsourcing labor overseas is somehow understandable. It doesn't suit me, but it's clear to me why companies do it. Admittedly, to me all this looks like the leaders didn’t know what to do and in... — read more
Return to office
Time to get all the slackers back in the office so that we can improve metrics and retain market share... WFH is ki----g the company
Don't be naive
Wilson is not going anywhere until he wants to leave (which I don't see happening any time soon since Allstate is his golden goose). That's the way these things work. We get fired or laid off for stupid and insignificant things while those on top can... — read more
AAFJ Report on Worst Insurance Companies
https://www.decof.com/documents/the-ten-worst-insurance-companies.pdf A report by the American Association for Justice.Allstate is listed as #1 worst starting on page 4. I can’t say I am shocked, but it’s very sad to say I work for a company that... — read more
Outside of claims and legal how is you experience at Allstate?
I work in an area outside of claims and legal and found myself surprised at the horror stories in those areas posted about at this site. My experience in my department is much different. Morale is very good and my peers and I are very happy with... — read more
It’s hard to work in a company you don’t have a good opinion of anymore
TGP has set Allstate back so much that this no longer looks like the company I started working for and where I used to love working. Before I gave notice, I tried to think of good things that might be worth staying here for a while. In vain. Is... — read more
More rate increases coming
Beautiful…just beautiful… How is that transformative growth going baby??? Time to buy another underperforming company to try to hide those customers that are hitting the exits….Time to throw more millions into stock buybacks and just for giggles, you... — read more
Look at the reality of the Allstate stock price
After a major financial release today, Allstate stock again drops. Look at the pattern. After most corporate financial releases, the stock drops significantly…The stock rebounds as tens of millions of dollars in corporate money floods the stock in... — read more
Why do we blame Pune?
Indian ppl need jobs just like everyone else in this world. They have mouths to feed too. Idky u guys always wanna blame the worker but never the employer. Pune outsourcing is a American capitalist creation. Americans are choosing to exploit cheap... — read more
Brandt for CEO!!
Eric Brandt becoming CEO would help Allstate transform into a more customer friendly and employee friendly company. His extensive claims background would also help improve the overall claims experience for customers.
You’d feel at least a bit bad for Wilson and Shapiro if the stock crashed
Wouldn’t you at least feel a bit bad for these guys if the stock crashed and they ended up with no retirement.. Let’s be honest, these guys have worked hard.
