I could live with earning less than the industry standard, I could even live with losing some of the benefits, but what I can't live with is this work culture. It is both cliquish and depressing. There are people who are part of the 'club' who will... — read more
Gotta feel back for Tom and Glenn…ALL at $128
You gotta have an BIT of sympathy for the Several hundred thousand dollars these guys have lost as the share price has fallen.
The General to buy Allstate
Shaq is ceo starting tmmw
Tesla Insurance
Elon needs to buy Allstate gut it and clean house and rebrand. It would be the greatest insurance tech company in the world.
I work in ASDU. I'm just wondering what makes claims so bad
This isn't a post for or against claims. I'm generally curious what makes you hate the job. Is it the customers, management, or something else?
Are there any healthy departments here at all?
That's what I would love to know.
Allstate down to $128
Crazy how much it’s tanking… Poor Glenn and Tom
Do yourself a favor
If anybody who is considering joining (since I know we're hiring right now) is reading this, this is a warning aimed directly at you. If you care about having any dignity, walk away before it's too late. Allstate and its management will treat you... — read more
Anyone else thinks that Allstate is not far from being sold?
I hear more and more speculation that Allstate could be sold eventually.
Sending jobs overseas
Allstate's drive to cut costs and maximize profits by outsourcing labor overseas is somehow understandable. It doesn't suit me, but it's clear to me why companies do it. Admittedly, to me all this looks like the leaders didn’t know what to do and in... — read more
Return to office
Time to get all the slackers back in the office so that we can improve metrics and retain market share... WFH is ki----g the company
Don't be naive
Wilson is not going anywhere until he wants to leave (which I don't see happening any time soon since Allstate is his golden goose). That's the way these things work. We get fired or laid off for stupid and insignificant things while those on top can... — read more
AAFJ Report on Worst Insurance Companies
https://www.decof.com/documents/the-ten-worst-insurance-companies.pdf A report by the American Association for Justice.Allstate is listed as #1 worst starting on page 4. I can’t say I am shocked, but it’s very sad to say I work for a company that... — read more
Outside of claims and legal how is you experience at Allstate?
I work in an area outside of claims and legal and found myself surprised at the horror stories in those areas posted about at this site. My experience in my department is much different. Morale is very good and my peers and I are very happy with... — read more
It’s hard to work in a company you don’t have a good opinion of anymore
TGP has set Allstate back so much that this no longer looks like the company I started working for and where I used to love working. Before I gave notice, I tried to think of good things that might be worth staying here for a while. In vain. Is... — read more
More rate increases coming
Beautiful…just beautiful… How is that transformative growth going baby??? Time to buy another underperforming company to try to hide those customers that are hitting the exits….Time to throw more millions into stock buybacks and just for giggles, you... — read more
Look at the reality of the Allstate stock price
After a major financial release today, Allstate stock again drops. Look at the pattern. After most corporate financial releases, the stock drops significantly…The stock rebounds as tens of millions of dollars in corporate money floods the stock in... — read more
Why do we blame Pune?
Indian ppl need jobs just like everyone else in this world. They have mouths to feed too. Idky u guys always wanna blame the worker but never the employer. Pune outsourcing is a American capitalist creation. Americans are choosing to exploit cheap... — read more
Brandt for CEO!!
Eric Brandt becoming CEO would help Allstate transform into a more customer friendly and employee friendly company. His extensive claims background would also help improve the overall claims experience for customers.
You’d feel at least a bit bad for Wilson and Shapiro if the stock crashed
Wouldn’t you at least feel a bit bad for these guys if the stock crashed and they ended up with no retirement.. Let’s be honest, these guys have worked hard.
Sales leaders gone?
Is it true? They let them go or offered agencies ?
Office reopening?
When ate they opening the offices back up? COVID is over, let's go back to normal!
The legacy of Wilson and Shapiro
Nearly every 2019-2021 review of the service given by insurance companies completed by independent entities has Allstate in the top three of the worst…Many has Allstate as the worst…Their major competitors of Geico and Progressive continued to beat... — read more
Done looking for same or higher paid jobs
I'm no longer prioritizing pay in my job search. I've learned after spending (or to be more precise, wasting) three years at Allstate that it's more important to pursue a career I'm going to enjoy and not the one that I think will pay better. That's... — read more
Yayy! Allstate hits another high of $143.86
Love them or hate them, gotta admit Wilson and Shapiro are making that money!!
Offices reopening, need to know NOW
Can’t find anything to about this? What’s the deal with offices reopening?? When , if, how? Need to know NoW and haven’t heard anything!
Years of mismanagement
I'm sad to see what Allstate has become. I gave notice, but it used to be nice to work here and I would love to hear one day that Allstate is back on track. But the question is whether even some new leadership, with different approach, would be... — read more
Quick question
Is the Charlotte office ever reopening? I can't find any threads about this
Do Yourself a Favor
If you’re underpaid by the company, look at other carriers. They’re paying much more money right now in certain scenarios. Once you’re stuck in the Allstate web, you’ll be getting 1-3.5% raises for the most part. If you can make 10k—20k elsewhere... — read more
Why are we unable to hire in IT?
Because our offers are too low.
Attrition is the name of the game.
The way I see it, the way the company is going to go in terms of reducing the headcount is forcing attrition rather than performing mass layoffs. In other words I think we should worry a lot less about being laid off. It is more likely that they... — read more
Has anyone went back in the Hudson office. I know it opened this week
If so what's it like?
Feeling sorry for the customers
I will give notice soon because it's become humiliating to work here. How often do you feel sorry for the customers?
Can Allstate compete with Progressive and Geico?
I agree with someone who said that there is no chance to compete with them with the current agent based model. Perhaps someone disagrees?
Wish the mods would stop deleting posts
Wish the mods would quit deleting posts that disagree with the main narrative. Yes, we notice you are doing it STOP that sh-t
Have you ever noticed?
How quiet other insurance boards are? Just check.
The Reason I Jumped Ship
I left Allstate after 5 years and went to a competitor. Why? We in claims were treated not just poorly but abominably! First, we had to take a personality test! Then layoffs during the pandemic, just to increase profits! Then those of us who survived... — read more
coming back
Without doxing myself, I reapplied and haven't heard anything in some time. I assume I'm not getting the position but no news is good news right? How long are they taking to decide these days?
Is the Charlotte office opening soon?
I can't find any info on this
