Don't believe the home office shills telling you to stay because the job market is bad. Took me 1 day to find and apply to jobs with better pay and better benefits. Took 3 weeks to go through the interviews I start a new job in a week. The office... — read more 

How’s the Allstate sales agent and market sales associates positions going? I understand they rolled those out quite a while ago.

Do you people even get enough time to rest? My work life balance no longer exists. I have always despised those whose entire identity comes down to their job, but here I have become such a person by force of circumstances because I no longer have... — read more 

What do you think these two Chicago guys are spending their dirty money on over the 3 day weekend?

I left voluntarily. Allstate was nothing but a horrible experience for me and I don’t miss it one bit. Since being gone better things have happened for me. My health has improved; I found a new job that I enjoy. I don’t dread going into work anymore... — read more 

For those of you returning to the office on either a hybrid or full time basis, when do you start going back? Also, what about those of you who had your old office closed, but don’t want to be full time WAH?

Meeting highlights: Need to do better on timeliness of adjusting claims and be careful in overpaying out claims. Scolding us basically on taking too long and paying too much. Claims hurt recent earnings numbers. Still a lot to do in terms of... — read more 

Why was the marketing VP from Esurance Abraham let go? Seems she was more talented than some of the Allstate marketing people. She was the one behind the Dennis Quid advertising.

What could these executives do at this point to make you respect them even a little bit?

Failure to do so by the June 4th close date will almost certainly result in a one way ticket to the layoff list. They are testing your engagement.

I don't expect the company to care for me, but I do expect to be respected. Which I'm currently not. The way Allstate has been treating us, it's obvious that it has nothing but disdain for every single one of us (the ELT excluded.) Just think of all... — read more 

I really hate these sudden large scale leadership meetings with such little notice. Went through too many of them last year and the news is never good.

I was trying to fit in because it’s very hard to work in a company where you can’t fit into its corporate culture. Sometimes I even think that even those who look very happy here are just a little more skillful at acting than me because acting is the... — read more 

He is known to be an ultra successful investor so with him having a huge stake, that could mean good news for employees and customers.

I haven't seen anyone comment on the recent news of "activist investor" (vulture) Carl Icahn announcing he had taken a 1% position in Allstate (that's north of $400 million). This is great news if you hold a sizeable amount of Allstate stock... — read more 

Considering how bad morale and HR are here, how the he-l did Parsons get her position?

This is what Glen and Tom are really getting paid for. Not for taking care of customer or employees.

We care deeply about each and every one of you. We recently had a record quarter and year for profits! Our bonuses were fat. Thank you workers for being flexible and taking on increased workload and layoffs. You have been great slaves um I mean... — read more 

Word from my coworker in management is that layoffs for SCO are to occur then. Need to brush up the resume after 6 years :(

First 60 claims processors laid off last week. 40 auto adjusters moving to CCC as a claims help desk for CCC, India being assigned auto/prop files as of this week, and now strong rumblings of large impacts to FNOL coming sometime in June. Buckle... — read more 

Given the large presence of technology staff in India and Northern Ireland, will there be upcoming layoffs in North America?

For all you big brains that keep preaching that everyone is getting payed off in claims. How do figure out re-insurance is going to work considering they require staff to handle a large percentage of claims. That’s physical inspections so don’t try... — read more 

The remaining few days that you still worked in the company - did you do bare minimum, almost nothing, or did you still do the best you could because you didn't want to leave a bad impression in the end?

Adkisson would have been a way better executive than Brandt to move from Esurance to Allstate. Plus he was the Esurance CEO Anyone else think it’s weird he wasn’t picked?

No one is interested in working here anymore? I had no doubt that one day this would happen, that no one with any talent would want to work here anymore.

Does anyone have any insight as to how stable commercial specialty is? AKA Uber / Lyft? Or does anyone have any insight regarding those adjuster roles in general as I was thinking about switching to that side

With all the layoffs, how the he-l did Wilson get a fu----g raise in total compensation from $16 million to $18 million..... Unbelievable.

A few of us were just told that the 30-40 auto adjusters being moved to CCC third week of June are to be a part if the new "Customer Claims Engagement" group that CCC is building. We will be handling routed calls and chats from CCC service that are... — read more

I really believe that if you take Glenn Shapiro's failed plans, failed processes, and flawed and disastrous vision out of Allstate you have a vastly better company. The vast majority of low morale, toxic attitudes, and feelings of hopelessness in... — read more 

I saw this mentioned somewhere and it helped me, so I figured I'd share. If you can't decide if you want to quit or not, remove layoffs as a factor from your consideration. Think about your job minus the layoffs and see if you would be happy here if... — read more 

Does anyone else remember that town hall when TW mentioned that him and his wife are part of a book club and love puzzles?

Does the fact that he gives hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to help animals change your opinion of him at all? Or the fact that he would likely give money to someone who was struggling?

I resigned from my position as a senior property adjuster right after Allstate shut down ERL and raised the threshold to 4 claims a day. I realized pretty quick that Allstate did not value my loyalty or work ethic. I have accepted a position with... — read more
