Anyone have recommendations on where to report intentional bad faith claim practices? I have only been here a few years but it is evident that they are adding processes that are designed to slow claim handling down and pay less. I have been... — read more

Our team has been removed from taking new files and tasked in revising and creating educational material for ASPL to use regarding auto adjusting. We are asked to have this done by the end of September. Not a good sign for us folks.
Allstate Connections with CEO Tom Wilson
Sitting here waiting for TW to say something about all the layoff's they are doing around the company. All these lil jokes are making me annoyed.
A fish rots from the head down
There is an old saying that a fish rots from the head down. The death spiral will not end until Leadership at the top changes.

Quality of replacements
It's completely unbelievable to me that any company would replace skilled employees with people who literally don't know what they are supposed to be doing. That is the sad reality at Allstate. What do the top dogs think they can achieve with the... — read more
CT AUTO
Do auto techs in CT do anything anymore? I can’t get anyone to call me back including the managers and their manager? No wonder customer satisfaction is in the tank. I am an injury adjuster dealing with customer complaints all day for auto who... — read more

Q2
Predictions? Are we down vs our competitors?
Scottsdale AIP will survive
They are doing construction on one side of it supposed to be more cubicles so that's a bright side
How is this possible?
Nothing we have witnessed in the past 5-10 years indicates that there is any level of competency in senior leadership with this company. Even the first level leaders are extremely poor. How can a person get promoted into leadership when they have no... — read more
The reputation of Allstate employees in the industry
I did not get the impression that the industry is looking to hire Allstate employees. However, I see a lot of people here claiming the opposite. Any thoughts?
Does anyone have faith?
While Allstate was once an industry leader in innovation is there any chance that TG will eventually succeed? The strategy seems incredibly flawed in so many areas but there again the lack of transparency leaves so much to the imagination

Does anyone know if or when there will be layoffs in Client Legal Services?
It's tough out there
Finding a job so I can quit Allstate is proving to be much harder than I expected. I don't know if this is temporary but it's certainly not confidence inducing. This feels bad now that I'm employed, I can only imagine how I'd feel if I were laid off... — read more

My entire LDU area let go today
All of zone let go. Our final day of current work is 7/12 and then we are in career workshops for 6 weeks until officially being severed. They said some of us may be moved to a WNS for working in that whatever that is instead of severance.
Allstates end goal is to have almost every department outsourced through a vendor
I was transferred to a vendor a few months ago and still work for allstate but just not directly. These vendors are bad. Nothing against the foreign workers but they don't understand insurance and English is their second language. Allstate just wants... — read more

CSL moves
All CSL’s will begin transitioning to Concentrix in 2 weeks. Not a good feeling with that and my CSL thinks it means she’s gone in a month or so.
New training starts this Friday
Why are we doing some upskill training every Friday beginning this week? My CSL told us it’s to train us in other aspects of insurance but why do we need to learn how to do something besides what we’re already doing. Sounds kind of odd to me unless... — read more
