Jobs could have been saved. Why did Allstate not reach out to potential retirement candadites?
My auto office has a number of employees who would have gladly taken the severance package and retired. Many jobs nationwide could have been saved. Many families not impacted. Would this have been too much to asks?
Is this the way to treat good and loyal workers?
From @NSFYtCu-1pcd, it is so disheartening to see how they did this. Unfortunately this layoff that just occurred was done in a very impersonal and abrupt manner which is why I think so many people are upset. It wasn't based on performance, there was... — read more

QFC for residential claims
At least we're not doing auto claims. Sounds like major lay offs country wide the last few days. I hope they don't come up with a way to do QFC for residential claims.
