Anyone know about unemployment??

Can a person draw unemployment after being laid off while waiting on a severance package? I have a feeling that Allstate will drag their feet getting the severance payment out. Just wondering if anyone knows... Thanks in advance.

This could have been handled much better

I can't speak for everyone, and I can't blame Allstate for wanting to stay up on technology even if that means letting some go. But this had to be in the making. Why hire someone, have them relocate knowing full well they are going to be laying them... — read more

Hiring among layoffs

It seems that there will be 2,250 new positions at Allstates Charlotte expansion. This would ordinarily be great news, if it was not happening while many other employees who have been with the company for years are getting laid off... — read more 

Work moving to India

An announcement will be sent out to Auto Claims on Friday about many of the jobs will start moving to India later this year or sooner. As a leader this makes me sick that knowing there is nothing to replace these positions. Allstate is lying to its... — read more

QuickFoto Claim is not working

What to expect?

With how they laid off people in a very secretive manner on June 14, I really doubt the July 18 announcement will be for layoffs. Remember, "impacted" (laid off) employees were emailed an invite the DAY BEFORE to join a conference call that was... — read more 

Allstate will lose market share they are trying to cut costs

I wish management would read this board, but that's to much to ask they don't even ask workers for input. Home office puts things in place and does not realize the negative effect it has on the company. I've meant a lot of people at Allstate that... — read more
