Let’s give some credit to Brandt for looking after old Esurance folks and trying to be the nice guy here. He’s not the one ultimately making the big decisions

There are still people who enjoy working at Allstate. It makes me frustrated to come here looking for any news of layoffs when those who are no longer here or those who are unhappy do nothing but badmouth the company just because it’s an anonymous... — read more 

There is too much work. Too many people are gone and not enough have been brought on. I'm expected to do three times as much as I had to do when I just started. This is not and should not be considered normal. We should be able to work to live, not... — read more 

Going under NatGeneral by end if month. Total debacle in handling of Esurance last year and a half

The entry level wage is $16 when a nearby call center is hiring for $20. This isn’t even considering that other competitors are paying well above this while also being fully remote.

How many former employees gave their blood, sweat and tears only to be part of a RIF? Do you regret it all and wished you had moved on sooner or were you grateful for the experience and knowledge you’ve gained? Do you still harbor resentment or were... — read more

Of course, I can only blame myself for coming here in the first place because I didn’t trust the people who said the situation here was so bad. I’ve only been here a few months and I’m looking for a new job. I don’t believe I could've made a bigger... — read more 

There’s a big difference between teams of people doing busy work that has very little results in the day to day operations and those who are actually focused on meaningful work that makes a huge impact. Sadly, there seems to be many more in the first... — read more

Hey everyone, former Allstate employee here, I was assessed last summer and RIF'd in November 2020. Curious to know if anyone similar to my situation has tried reapplying to Allstate? What was your experience in going back to work for them?

Organizers in our area already contacted three union groups. Two said they don't take on financial/insurance institutions and the other said Allstate legal is not something they can battle. I'm still for it if we can get a union group to take us.

There is zero quality left here. Attorneys fleeing weekly for other jobs and not even giving notice. That’s how little they care and I don’t blame them. I’ll be doing the same after my official offer at another firm comes in.

How do we get labor organizers interested in Allstate? Carl Ichan and the Vanguard and institutional investors would be interested?Do I want a union I dunno but options are always good. The posts about media everyone needs to start posting and... — read more

Some people act like it's fun for us to come here and trash the company. Like it gives us some sort of satisfaction, but in reality, it doesn't. Don't you think that every one of us would prefer to like our jobs and be satisfied with it instead of... — read more

Given all of the accurate information posted on this site, why hasn't the media picked up on what Allstate is doing companywide? Extremely poor working conditions, treating employees poorly? RIF that targeted older employees. Lose a class action... — read more 

Why would anyone care about this company anymore? I'm just interested in how to find a new job and get out of here as soon as possible. Do you notice that the situation on the job market is better now? How satisfied are you with the offers you've... — read more 

There are a lot of them, but those at the top are obviously not aware of it or perhaps they ignore them. I think Allstate will eventually realize that outsourcing has more of a negative effect on business and that it will have to change strategy.

I think we are losing many more people than we realize. The total number of employees doesn't change that much because for every American who is cut several people from cheaper countries are brought on. That heavily distorts the numbers and makes it... — read more

Has anyone been put on one and was able to achieve it to stay? Or should I just count my losses and start looking for a new job.

So the goal of most businesses (except some non profits) is to make money and as much a profit as possible. There are a few small businesses, but most large and mid size companies management at the top doesn't care about the workers. They see them as... — read more

Just like someone wrote, the area I work in was also very understaffed after a large number of people was laid off, only to become overstaffed very soon after. Total failures. Do they even know what they are doing?

Everyone at Allstate knows that no one is safe here, however, I wonder if there are any red flags that usually indicate that you will be cut? I was quite worried when the rumors of new cuts started circulating so now everything looks like a red flag... — read more 

Now we know why they are pushing diversity so hard. Nothing to do with helping others. It's about their bonus. Scumbags. https://amp.insurancejournal.com/news/national/2021/07/27/624459.htm

Does anyone know exactly why no one is told their assessment test results? Does anyone know if management really chooses who they want to keep and who they want to let go? Meaning the “assessment test” is just a smokescreen to cover Allstate’s a-s? — read more 

I heard there are hundreds more coming. All areas. Anyone heard anything?

How bad are the cuts actually going to be? I have heard that FSC's are going to have to go through some evaluation process and that EFS's might be at risk to, does anyone really know?

I don’t like working here and can’t wait to find a new job. As soon as I give notice, I think I’ll forget I’ve ever worked here. However, what I have noticed is that most people who leave continue to talk about the bad things that happened to them... — read more

Yes, the company used to make sure employees were happy. It was nice working here back then. I gave 150 percent of myself and that was valued. Was the company more successful then than it is now when employees are demoralized in every way? I think it... — read more 

Yes, the question is a bit satirical. They only talk the talk but don’t walk the walk. Leadership urgently needs to tackle their own behavior first, before communicating these changes to employees.
