@wjq+1eqWdSou The new pay bands are outpacing our competitors but they are shafting the current employees due to the limit on merit increase. I will give you an example, I hired a person a year ago for a position they were given a midpoint salary, now if I find an identical person next month and offer them a role at midpoint they will make several thousands more than the person I hired last year that has 1 year experience at Allstate, even with a merit raise.

Where we lack is comparable roles that are with different industries.

Underwriting, rmbc. You’ll make under $20 forever even with meeting business goals. If you like stagnation then it’s for you

Unfortunately most of the knowledgeable managers were either laid off or retired early to get away from the sh-t show and as many others have said the sinking ship. Unfortunately, there are a few litigation mgrs in AZ managing CA Litigation with "superiority complexes" because they were put in a position they never worked nor know how to manage, intimidated by their employees who have far more knowledge than they do. They laid so many good tenured employees and managers off to be left with low tenure employees who don’t have the knowledge or experience that can only come with tenure. You get what you pay for. Allstate should be ashamed of how they have devalued their hard working claims adjusters and still have the nerve to use the ‘Good Hands’ slogan. So glad I left when I did, employees are not in good hands. I feel sorry for the few left in California; they will make your remaining time there he-l in hopes you leave so they can get out of paying severance packages.

Not an Allstate employee but have a question similar to the original poster. How safe are the accounting and finance departments within Allstate. I notice there's a few openings and debating on if I should apply.

The new pay bands are outpacing many competitors. The 401k is on par with most. Bonus is still a missing though.

This company is like a tree rotting from the crown. Those in the E-Suite only care about quarterly profits and are not taking care of the long-term vision or our people who do the lion’s share of the work around here.

I’m out of here first quarter 2022 and it is my opinion this place is a cancer and getting out is probably for the best.

At least, all things being equal, go work for a competitor where even the rank and file get a bonus, the pay band ceiling’s are higher and 401k match is better.

Replying to the first commenter, you just be speaking of auto claims. Property isn’t that bad, sure the work is rough but most of us are able to knock our 5 a days out and get to the rest. Woopsies, forgot to mention we all come in 2 hours before our shift to get our estimates done. A double sided sword

Stay far, far away from claims in any of its forms, it’s a sh---y job at any company, here it’s soul destroying misery, in addition to sub-par pay and the fact they are actively trying to move it to India.
