I've been here for 25 years. When I just started I was satisfied with most things regarding work and I enjoyed my job. Over the years that changed gradually, and now I'm at the point where I hate my job and everything about it. I have no intention of... — read more 

Seems like as Encompass rolls into National General the Encompass employees will disappear with it. Anyone know more about that? Even though Allstate purchased National General, seems like they are running the show and to heck with Encompass... — read more 

Ours is claiming he has none and that the orders come from higher tiers. I don’t really believe him.

Another C suite oddity is head of HR Carrie Blair joined ALL in 2019. Looks like she was fired from Sun LIfe and it took her 1+ years to find anything. They just needed a body before they started massive layoffs and firings.

I have never experienced a company that expects the training of newly hired and/or transferred employees to be done by already overworked employees. Unbelievable. And when you need help, you’re told to consult the online database because they... — read more 

People complaining about Allstate health insurance should know that these guys have the exact same coverage as regular employees. There health insurance situation is no different and costs the same.

Why do you think that if your department is understaffed or if Allstate is hiring, there will be no layoffs? People seem to forget very quickly that everything is possible at Allstate, that layoffs don’t make any sense and that this company... — read more 

Just got the email that Gerard will be speaking as to the assessments we took, sounds lovely.

When people complain about high health insurance prices, remember that Wilson and Shapiro have the exact same plans that regular employees do, so they are in the same boat.

Customers only care about price to a point…and that point comes at the first claim moment of truth… You can be sure that they are not sticking around for poor claim service or low ball claim payments when they have a claim regardless of price…... — read more 

That's the talk going around. Multiple areas. Multiple departments. Multiple levels from grunts on up. All I have.

State farm has the best commercials

Ive been reading the typical pro-company id--t responses to issues raised, and I see you the home office damage control id--ts follow like lemmings. "What does A 'Reputation Management Cyber Controller Subject Matter Expert do" (who is grade 2 and... — read more 

If you're going to complain about a benefit that has gotten worse over time, the health insurance is the worst I've ever had. I can't believe they couldn't work out a better plan given the size of the company. Exactly! Is there anyone who can... — read more 

Two more senior level attorneys are "no longer with the firm". I am the paralegal for one of them and am nervous.

How was Wilson’s reputation as a Sears executive? As the CFO of Allstate? I assume they must have been good, considering he got the CEO job??

After reading all the posts regarding the “many” layoffs that have taken place, I feel as if I have been completely sheltered from any news from within the company. Personally, I don’t know of a single resource that has been laid off. How can... — read more 

Went to a neighborhood ( Huntley, Il. ) barbecue this weekend and the conversation turned to Allstate demolishing the Home Office complex on 294 in Northbrook, then selling the prime location for development. Not a shock to hear all things considered... — read more 

The response was so worth leaving them high and dry. I am so excited to do nothing for two weeks except watch them squirm and scramble for a replacement.

This company won’t lay the real workers off too quick. Stop wishing. They will lay off the hard working adjusters when they are darn good and ready to. India will get well from the pandemic and then it will be a mass US exodus to fulfill Glenn’s... — read more 

Have you noticed that none of the current Allstate commercials mention a thing about customer service??? Not a word about the quality of service…. Corporate and marketing knows that Allstate sucks in how it services customers….will now ONLY mention... — read more 

Layoff announcements coming within weeks…significant across all pay grades and departments… Once completed, the majority of Allstate operations will be overseas…. Significant layoffs of American based employees will continue through 2023…

Rumors of layoffs no longer bother me at all. Moreover, I would like to get laid off as soon as possible. How many people do you know for whom the layoff was a great service because they hesitated for a long time and were unsure to leave on their... — read more 

WTF!!!!!

People at every level have been let go this week and it will continue. Who is looking for a new job?

The rats are leaving the ship!!

I don’t understand, do people like to spread panic or do these rumors really have some real foothold? I don't believe that the severance plan will change, but nothing would surprise me more than this company. Maybe someone misinterpreted the... — read more 

Looks like things are blowing up. They are looking for all sorts of Reps( Auto,LDU, Casualty) to work nights and weekends for CAT Pay. Maybe Tom and Glenn can handle some claims this weekend. Nice mess they created.

Has anyone heard anything?

It is incredible what is happened at Staff Counsel office. Attorneys are being displaced with no notice. I survived the first round at my office but they said it is company wide and will continue. I obviously need to look elsewhere now and had no... — read more 

Per HR contacts the new severance structure was approved in February and will be updated in HR resources by end of June before this year's large layoff rounds. The small number already impacted this year were under the prior structure. The new... — read more

I regret that I didn’t leave this company a few years ago, when I had a chance to move to a great company that turned out to have much more respect for employees than Allstate. It's not Allstate's fault, it's my bad decision. I couldn't even... — read more 

Some are already talking about possible dismissals in August, and even those who did not receive the VTO offer are at risk as well. I have no doubt about the latter. I wonder if anyone has any idea or knows more about how many people did not accept... — read more

There are a lot of unhappy people at Allstate currently who could and should be benefiting from the multitude of available remote jobs right now. There are so many options available that were not there before the pandemic, so if you were looking to... — read more
