Tom took the assessment?

So with a little chuckle TW announced he took the assessment and received his results. That’s awesome. And he was amazed how accurate it was. We were all told the we would not receive the results of our assessments as it’s not a pass/fail. So why... — read more 

Really?.. Assessment Results

So Major Tom got to know the results of his assessment and it was "so accurate and reflective" and we will never know the specifics of ours...That's really telling

Tom Wilson Assessment

Tom’s version of taking the assessment = person, woman, man, camera, tv. Also, none of these questions are live. And I’m 99% sure this meeting is pre-recorded.

Questions

Does anyone really ever have their pre-submitted questions answered in these town hall meetings? I’m wondering if they just answer their own good sounding questions and pass it off as ours. It always seems like their reading their “answers”.

How do skills transition to new opportunities?

If a BI adjuster was looking for a new position outside of Allstate and is interested in getting out of insurance altogether - what positions would the skills used in Allstate transition to? What job openings could be related but not in insurance?... — read more

New update today 8/25/20

We were told today that Texas (Dallas) LDU adjusters are now going to be claim loaded with Arkansas and Tennessee LDU claims. I'm not in LDU so I didn't get more than that. I don't know if that means Texas LDU is safe? Does that mean AR and TN are... — read more

I give up!

I give up! Do we not have a group to speak to. I feel like I have lost all hope. I am terrified of losing my home and my car. I have worked hard to be able to provide for my daughter. I cant keep performing at 100 percent, while I am dying inside. I... — read more

Worse than being unemployed

I was one of the people not laid off, yet, I would have much rather been laid off with how bad it is here verses keeping my job. Anyone else feel this way?

Town Hall

This thread has been quiet for the last few days. Did everyone receive the email for the Town Hall I’m Wednesday? What kind of “new” and “exciting” information do you think we have to look forward to ?

No

I really hate working for a company that I potentially have no future in.

Is Allstate mostly laying off adjusters?

I worked at Allstate staff counsel office and they made attorneys sit in cubicles. No more offices. It’s the cheap type of cubicles, too. Not the type with high divider walls. Instead of admitting that it was part of cost cutting, they pitched the... — read more

Why didn’t Senior Leadership manage expenses?

For years employees have heard that Allstate operated at a high expense structure but appropriate actions could have been taking. Proper spans of control, no bonus level individuals that didn’t have direct reports, performance manage those not... — read more

Exciting times at my desk!

Please Sever Me

I am tired of low pay, metrics being crammed down my throat, and layoff games. Im ready to have a job that I care about and at least halfway cares about me. I’d be happy to walk away with some extra pay and find something different? Anyone else... — read more 

ESURANCE AND GENERAL ADJUSTERS

What are you being told by higher ups and how are things changing for your organization? As you can see, it is complete chaos here at Allstate. I think it would be helpful if we kept each other in the loop.

Serious Question- Rate reduction

The transformative process is centered around the goal of lowering the cost of insurance to grow and better retain customers. Once the rates are reduced, will the current Allstate customers policies be automatically re-priced? If not why? If so... — read more

The Future

Imagine if you will, an Allstate organization where the Good Hands are severed and there is no “Fast, Fair, and Easy” for our customers. Customers used to be able to get through to an agent or someone who cared, now they are forced to log-In... — read more

Reality

This company has decided to oversimplify understanding “absolute” talent. And those selected can feel good about themselves “because the company said so”. Is ANYONE surprised the SAME people? 65% performance and then other Corp factors? And... — read more

Too bad

It’s too bad we require money to be free and are tied to ridiculous circimstances like this one. There’s been no effort to communicate with employees, and now the morale is toxic. Bravo Allstate. I’ve been working really hard......... Cram it... — read more

Pump and dump

We're doing the old "pump and dump" to policies as we get to them. Eat it Allstate! Keep the severance! You brought it on yourselves!
