Does anyone think upper mgmt and executives are reading and/or writing some of these comments?

Has anyone else noticed that the recording of Tom's townhall where he announced that "thousands" will be laid off has not been released? This is also the same townhall where he kept saying "black people". And using the phrase is offensive to some... — read more 

So how can they be hiring for LDU Adjusters if they are laying off. Hiring for LDU in Charlotte. Hired new LDU Adjusters after the pandemic. This makes no sense. Confused??

So they are hiring for LDU in Charlotte. How can they be hiring if they are going to layoff LDU Adjusters. They were hiring for LDU after the pandemic. Why would you hire and then layoff? Makes no sense!!

Does anyone have any info on the amount of RIFs that will take place in the auto appraisal dept,, DOCs & field appraisal teams???

What they are doing right now (lay-offs in conjunction with buybacks) is one of the most egregious examples of corporate greed this country has seen since the likes of Enron and WorldCom. The executives know it, too. Which is why they don't... — read more

Does anyone know what the plan for LDU claims is?

So I was told if you get a assessment, you on the chopping block. If you don't, you are safe. They are getting rid of the MCO's. Getting rid of processors. My manager says this is what she is being told. The RCLs know already who is going. They... — read more 

Does anyone know when the first round of layoffs is actually going to happen?

Stop saying we are being transparent at every meeting! You already know who is being cut and why (Greed). A tiny pay cut from top execs and Allstate would meet their goals. This is the worst possible and most unethical time to make job cuts. Just... — read more 

The people that make this round of cuts will be doing more work with less staff. The workload was already insane due to previous cuts. It’s an unhealthy place to work with people putting in 60 plus hours a week for ok pay. Tom Wilson and other top... — read more 

When the dust settles and the company has been down sized, is not the same amount of work going to be there with less people to do it? Just wondering if there is a plan here other than just saving money.

Good ol’ boys CEO/COO millionaires club making billions in profit annually still plan to cut jobs during a global recession and global pandemic while people worldwide are dying and struggling. Unconscionable.

It's been a loser since we bought it from GE!

Does anyone have further information about when the layoffs will begin? I have a sinking feeling it's going to start this week. And anyone know which areas will be affected first?

Any idea how hard legal will be hit? Any word on combining offices? Does anyone have any idea about how they will be deciding who is leaving- will rating, seniority, etc. be a factor?
