I work from home everyday and chat so I don't have to speak with customers directly. I listen to music, watch tv, sometimes drink, smoke, talk on the phone. No physical labor at all. Just in my office. I know it's to each it's own

Nothing will change in the culture of this company until those at the top change. Agree? Culture starts at the top. This is the only explanation why a manipulator, slacker and backstabber always do better here than a hard worker who does his job... — read more 

I hear so many people complaining about their bosses as if there's nothing they can do to change their situation. Guess what, you can. You just have to accept the fact that working here means having to do your role and being a politician at the same... — read more 

I put in my two weeks notice, and the exit survey link was broken. This sums up Allstate perfectly.

Put in my notice. I feel like a weight has been lifted. Got a new job which was such a blessing an came right on time as I was contemplating quitting this one. Gave this company almost 10 years of my life in claims. I was an excellent worker then... — read more 

Let me make a suggestion ….if you’re young enough, join the marines or the navy. If you’re smart enough become a nurse or a dentist. If you’re talented enough, start your own business. DO NOT I repeat DO NOT work for an insurance company, especially... — read more 

It dawned on me that having the constant fear of losing my job is not normal. When I see employees who excel in their job performance get RIF’d I ask myself what chance do I have of surviving any future rounds? It’s not something I want to... — read more 

Is that Allstate? In my case, it is. Never before could I have thought that a company could function with such bad management, until I came here. I hope to leave as soon as possible. I wouldn't even call this management, this is more like an... — read more 

We all know how horrible this company is and how we are being told to “get out”, “leave”, “quit”. That’s all fine and dandy if you’re at an age where it’s easy to find a replacement BUT not quite as easy if you’re in your late 40s to mid 50s. There... — read more 

So many surveys and assessments for management levels while they just finished vto and lead counsels now awaiting their demise all while hiring new attorneys who passed the bar last night. Comedy.

It is obvious that Allstate is cutting costs. Mr. Haysbert's contract was around $4 million per year. Makes no sense to sign him for another year if the company is for sale. Everyone needs to read between the lines: *At age 63 Tom Wilson is... — read more 

Wonder how Glenn's animal shelters/charity are holding up through all this chaos!?

Hows about we get them to take our complaints seriously? From Front line to home office

I currently make around $50,000 with allstate. I'm open to leaving but does anyone know good jobs that pay $50,000 or more? I don't want to take a job making less

I’ve been working for a little over 3 years and what an eye opener it’s been. I started off thinking I would focus on career development but I’ve quickly learned that there is none here. If I had known in advance how each department is its own little... — read more 

It’s now official Allstate gave the boot to the best spokesperson of a lifetime. Dennis Haybert is now a casualty on the layoff. He will be replaced with an outsourced person from India.

I just found out my position has been outsourced to India and will lose my job. I naively thought I had job security and worked for a great company. Nope. The assessment test is bu-----t and they won’t give you your results. Fu-k you Allstate. — read more 

What a complete disaster. ALLSTATE has been outsourcing work to India and claims is in such a ho-e it's a mess. If only our customers knew about the unqualified entry-level people we have handling their claims and personal information. Express is... — read more

And some of us actually like our jobs. Not every area of Allstate is a nightmare. I would not agree with someone who wrote this. I love my job too, but I started to despise it in this company. I wouldn’t say there are such “areas” that aren’t a... — read more 

Saw the job application below which was posted 6 days ago for a position in India and already has nearly 400 applicants. Using the current Rupee to U.S. $ exchange rate, the math works out to $2,019.55 - $6,732.06 vs a $40k+ salary here in the US. ... — read more

Part of the reason I left is because I got sick of having a stagnant career coupled with the ridiculous expectations by poor management and the executives. Of course I had to reassess my goals and prioritize what was most important to me and how to... — read more 

I can understand hating Allstate. I really can. But what I can't understand is why in the world does it bother some of you so much that some of us do not share that feeling. Allstate is far from perfect, but most of my years here have been good. Yes... — read more

A former coworker now works as a manager at a warehouse. He was so tired of Allstate that he was willing to accept a job that came with a drastic pay cut just to get out. I don't like this place either, but I don't think such drastic change is the... — read more

Just got off phone with Allsnake about Cobra subsidy for free Cobra. Allsnake now says they got more information and now I owe them money back? All snake is what they are. This company is BS. Run if your still working there in Hudson Ohio

From what I have heard he was regarded as an excellent Sears executive, and a GREAT Allstate CFO, but now a mediocre CEO. What changed?

Allstate is legally stealing from agents. Develop your exit strategy now. Time to call your congressional leaders.

Another name for agile here is failure, just my two cents. I certainly hope to get out of here sooner than they realize the shortcomings of agile.
