Topics regarding layoffs at Allstate Corp.

Hey directors, department heads...

Do you really think that all of the current directors and department heads will be needed as the operations transition to India?? You don’t think that the plan is to have folks based in India leading those working in India..... I would bet that... — read more

Is this WARN thing new?

Because I know myself two sets of Allstate layoffs in 2014 and 2016 where zero notice was given. The teams were literally walked to the cafeteria and informed they were being laid off, walked in groups by management and building security back to... — read more

Mods!?

Please stop deleting posts whenever you feel like it. And if you do, at least have the backbone to explain why you are deleting them.

Union please!

How can we let them continue to screw us over?! Power in numbers. Unionize!

Occurrences

Have you been told they are retroactively changing all 202 partial occurrences to full occurrences? I went from 4 to 9 overnight. Ya, I may have used their system to my advantage but this is crazy. Another stick to hold over our heads. I expect a UN... — read more 

Which departments are going back?

To the people that have spilled insider comments on other threads for certain centers... which departments are full time work from home and which are hybrid?

Call center new skillset

So I have to say, after speaking to customers daily I can now add “apologizer-in-charge” to my long list of talents. Never let it be said that Allstate doesn't help us learn new things and expand our skills. I'm sure this'll come very handy in my... — read more 

“Come see the softer side of Allstate.”

Since they are so eager to become irrelevant like Sears, they should use some of Sears old marketing lines.... “Allstate....solid as Sears” LOL

Competitive Price...when!

Okay, Allstate leadership laid off all these thousands and thousands of employees to be competitive with the Big Dogs of insurance (Geico, Progress, etc.) but we are still waiting to see this wonderful prices.

Withholding information

Why does management withhold information from us as if we will not find out? Such as going back to office? That is one thing I hate about this company. They withhold important information from the employee.

Remember this ad

”and if you have cut-rate insurance you could be on the hook for thousands so get Allstate and become better protected.” Allstate’s goal is to now be that cut-rate insurance carrier..... Allstate is now everything they used to advertise they... — read more 

Back to the Office?!

Anyone got the scoop on who’s going back? Supposed to hear by end of month, but someone might have some intel. Just curious!

New hires

When I first came here, this was a completely different company. Anyway, I struggled a lot trying to fit in because I didn’t have much previous experience. I can't even imagine how it is for those who are just now coming here. I would not like to... — read more 

Glenn sells!

Glenn dumps $2,000,000 of ALL shares on March 1. Retention numbers coming soon! Thoughts?

Automation and India

It is a bummer that we will all be replaced by AI or India here soon. Eventually I think they’ll maybe even handle chats.

My biggest mistake

I wish I knew about this site eight months ago, I wouldn't have made one of the biggest mistakes of my life. I quit a decent job to switch to Allstate because the pay was better and it seemed like a fun and engaging job. It actually was, I enjoyed... — read more 

ASIC

Is it just me or does it seem like Allstate is hitting the ASIC department. All band 3s and 4s had no choice but to go to the RMBC and going forward ASIC will just be a band 2 position while RMBC is band 3,4, and 5

All Property Claims Town Hall

We got an email yesterday in property claims regarding a town hall meeting for all property coming up. What do you think this is all about?

Union?

Any hope of organizing before we're all out on our asses?

Claim adjuster salary

So I was thinking of applying as a claim adjuster and see Allstate's starting salary is $38,800! Progressive starts at $47,000. Does anyone know what other insurance companies start as? Allstates starting salary seems low

Rehired back

They reinstated our eliminated position after it was deemed redundant. After 3 months of not really seeing anything I would rather do I went back. The position is two bands lower but salary is only about $2500 less than when I was laid off. Going to... — read more 

Watch the retention number

If the stock price deteriorates, Allstate will definitively be in play....I truly feel that is the ultimate end game for this leadership team.... The only thing saving it right now as an independent company is the current market cap ....making any... — read more
