There are a lot of them, but those at the top are obviously not aware of it or perhaps they ignore them. I think Allstate will eventually realize that outsourcing has more of a negative effect on business and that it will have to change strategy.

I think we are losing many more people than we realize. The total number of employees doesn't change that much because for every American who is cut several people from cheaper countries are brought on. That heavily distorts the numbers and makes it... — read more 

While we all know the next 12 months will bring us massive movement of the whole of claims to India there must remain a sizeable footprint of US based employees in all departments. This is for home base continuity and corporate tax breaks. You know... — read more 

Customer service, appraisals, IT, now med summaries to make it easier to put in colossus. How long until they decide 1 person can handle 500 claims because someone else does half the job? Next round of layoffs after this rolls out.

Has anyone been put on one and was able to achieve it to stay? Or should I just count my losses and start looking for a new job.

So the goal of most businesses (except some non profits) is to make money and as much a profit as possible. There are a few small businesses, but most large and mid size companies management at the top doesn't care about the workers. They see them as... — read more 

Nearly impossible to get anybody on VA and they rarely respond to call backs. I have 2 cars sitting for 2 days, numerous unsuccessful attempts at VA. Customers are leaving in droves due to the poor service. I encourage all Allstate customers to drop... — read more 

Just like someone wrote, the area I work in was also very understaffed after a large number of people was laid off, only to become overstaffed very soon after. Total failures. Do they even know what they are doing?

Everyone at Allstate knows that no one is safe here, however, I wonder if there are any red flags that usually indicate that you will be cut? I was quite worried when the rumors of new cuts started circulating so now everything looks like a red flag... — read more 

Now we know why they are pushing diversity so hard. Nothing to do with helping others. It's about their bonus. Scumbags. https://amp.insurancejournal.com/news/national/2021/07/27/624459.htm

Does anyone know exactly why no one is told their assessment test results? Does anyone know if management really chooses who they want to keep and who they want to let go? Meaning the “assessment test” is just a smokescreen to cover Allstate’s a-s? — read more

How bad are the cuts actually going to be? I have heard that FSC's are going to have to go through some evaluation process and that EFS's might be at risk to, does anyone really know?

I don’t like working here and can’t wait to find a new job. As soon as I give notice, I think I’ll forget I’ve ever worked here. However, what I have noticed is that most people who leave continue to talk about the bad things that happened to them... — read more 

How is it that I’ve always been a great employee, the manager was always happy with my work, and now suddenly I get a lot of complaints? Suddenly they treat me like I have become someone else. I am very subtly informed that I should leave Allstate... — read more 

Yes, the company used to make sure employees were happy. It was nice working here back then. I gave 150 percent of myself and that was valued. Was the company more successful then than it is now when employees are demoralized in every way? I think it... — read more 

Yes, the question is a bit satirical. They only talk the talk but don’t walk the walk. Leadership urgently needs to tackle their own behavior first, before communicating these changes to employees.

I’ve been in claims for 2+ years and I want to move to another BU to be able to add more to my skill set. I’ve never contemplated it until now. How hard would that be? Will I need to apply internally for other positions or go to my supervisor and ask... — read more 

Those that are already in power simply want more. How do they go about it? They do it by increasing their earnings. They want to axe as many as possible without crippling the company too much. It doesn’t matter to them if we are overworked and... — read more

They cook the numbers every chance they get. Their quarterly numbers are just made up BS and highly manipulated. They lie to the shareholders, investors, agents, employees, media, policy holders, and the general public. This company is in a lot... — read more

My heart goes out to all the employees who were, and will be, laid off so Allstate could hire Alicia Keys. Clearly, the company believes this Grammy award winning musician, tv personality, business owner, author and philanthropist is in desperate... — read more

I know it’s the domain of science fiction, but is it also amazing to me that they never try to keep anyone, even best of the best employees, after giving notice?

I know that hard work at Allstate doesn’t pay off at all, but I work here for myself and my future, not for the future of Allstate. Besides, I don't know how to do my job any other way. It is necessary to work as hard as possible for another reason... — read more
