The other day I heard from a former colleague who helped me a lot when I first came here. That person was a great employee. She was loyal to this company, worked hard and hoped to be able to enjoy retirement when the time came. Allstate ruined it... — read more

Losing agents AND customers
Allstate is losing agents AND customers left and right and the leadership is doing absolutely nothing to stop either of those exoduses. Soon there'll be nobody left to do the work but then again, there'll be no customers left either. I can't figure... — read more

And happy job hunting!
Nothing can be done easily here
At first it was funny to me. Now, however, it's starting to frustrate me because my superior is still trying to outsmart everyone making even the simplest things more complicated. This person is not interested in the results but only that other... — read more
People don’t quit their jobs but bad leadership?
There was a time not too long ago, where bosses showed respect, were genuinely on the side of the employees. You didn’t work “for” these bosses you worked “with” them. Corporate America has forgotten what it was like to care. What it was like to... — read more

I hope Allstate goes out of business
The company has done nothing but mistreat its employees for years! We work our butts off for years and for what? To see our benefits taken away while our workload increases? To see many of our coworkers thrown out without a second thought? This place... — read more
Why all this hating on Hoosiers?
So many posts on this board complain about Allstate moving jobs to Indiana. Why are so many people upset? It’s right next to Illinois and the taxes are lower. For the most part it is a lovely place. Oh….India? The country in Asia? That’s... — read more

Don't even consider working here
Working at Allstate is mentally draining, tedious, and agonizingly frustrating. It will make you hate your own life. If you know what's good for you, you'll stay away.
Toxic Positivity
