"All Hands on Deck" meeting on 3/22/2022

Uh oh. This is how it ALL started in April 2020. With this same type of meeting denying any layoffs on the table and then 60 days later announcing layoffs would happen. They are about a month earlier this go around.

The pressure is growing

It's getting worse here day by day. Is it possible that the management is not aware of the pressure on employees and that because of that pressure we are losing people who are not easy to replace? They don’t even seem to be aware that... — read more 

I just hope it doesn't get any worse

Of course I’m not happy here, but since I still can’t get anything better, my only hope is that it won’t get worse here. I hope not. Otherwise, I would accept any other job and I would not be picky at all.

SCO (Legal)

A team has been created to work towards Answer automation. If you work in Legal, you know what that is. Anyone know if this means they are working to get rid of paralegals/admin and automate their jobs? Seems like this would be challenging, but many... — read more 

Making more after returning?

Companies don't care about you, they never will. I have seen several of my coworkers go to other companies with most going to Progressive and Geico. They have realized that it is just as bad there as it is at Allstate. A few came back last month and... — read more

I would love for Allstate to get back on track

Good leadership, or good decisions, could do wonders and fix this mess. However, it seems that this is no longer possible and that it is too late to get this company back on track?

Bonuses

Comp statements out. How were bonuses for those eligible?

Phoenix? Phoenix.

All the postings for Phoenix on the allstate.jobs site are for director- or VP-level positions. What's up with that?

Don't let any company rob you of your spirit!

Here’s a story about my former colleague. He worked here for years and always pushed himself to perform to the best of his abilities. He was one of those guys who lived for his job, always loyal to Allstate. And then he got laid off. None of our... — read more

Allstate isn’t competitive in rates or pay

I work for a competitor and get a sick satisfaction when droves of customers keep coming to us because Allstate jacked their rates up. We all knew the pay is a joke.

Home of substandard claim handling

I came here after working for two other carriers and I am astounded at how many processes are in place to simply write coverage. It seems as though this is by design to drag the claims out. On top of that , the required production is nowhere near... — read more

Claims leaders

It seems the new style CSL’s have been extremely under qualified “yes” types only. Not skilled or Knowledgeable leaders at all. My whole area of the country has noticed this new direction. Are they trying to sink this ship faster???

Where is the DOI

The way we handle claims is bad faith on a daily basis! Where/when will the DOI step in and protect the customer!? It is maddening that a company this size is allowed to operate this way. I literally see or hear bad faith claim handling on a daily... — read more

Not so great way to start a career in insurance?

If I had the misfortune to gain my first experience in the insurance world here at Allstate, I would surely be looking to get out of this industry forever. I know a person who, after the experience here, completely changed the industry. Now she... — read more

What do you want?

I've read so much discontent here but I really want to know: what do you want? Is a company supposed to pay you lots of money and make no money? What would you change? It feels like everyone here wants to be paid to do nothing and believes that if... — read more

We need to hire more claims adjusters in 2022

No more layoffs please! We’re so over staffed that we’re doing the work of 2-3 adjusters. Every Sunday I can’t sleep knowing Monday morning I’ll be buried in 10-12 new claims and spending Half my day on the phone with angry shops insured and... — read more

One ask

I only ask that if Allstate is doing another round of layoffs, then they ask who wants to go and offer them a package (assuming that is still on the table). I for one, want a buyout, but was not offered to me in the last go around. This way, the... — read more

No one but our leadership likes the Transformative Growth Plan. I just wonder how it all will end and what Allstate will look like when the leadership finally realizes that TGP is very destructive. What do you think this company will be like when... — read more

At least Glenn is kind enough to take time out of his day to have meeting and provide insight into what is happening. He is also very respectful and treats people with dignity. Just saying

Possible Layoffs Soon

We had a big town hall in claims today. A lot of references to "minimizing expenses", "increasing labor efficiencies", "eliminating waste" and "stream lining processes" as we move into 2022 were commonplace. They openly said the next phase of... — read more
