Can someone tell me what the severance packages consist of? Is it worth waiting for or should I drop and keep it moving. I've invest 20 yrs with Allstate.
How many more layoffs will this cause?
Allstate (ALL +0.3%) expects its $4B acquisition of National General (NASDAQ:NGHC) to close on or about Jan. 4, 2021, if it gets all insurance regulatory approvals by the end of December, the company said in an SEC... — read more
Tired
Express here. I know how you all feel about us. It’s ridiculous what’s happening. I average about 45 calls a day. All MOI are broke. Avaya drops all calls at least twice a week. 45 min hold time for DOC. . The entire tech dept has failed. We need... — read more
George Graw and Mary Jo Quinn retiring
Am i the only one who thinks that's crazy, and has peculiar timing?
Absolute circus!
Allstate has really sh– the bed in the last 2 years. I know, let’s fire people, not promote those that are ready to take on more claims, yet hire new people that need to be trained or transferred over after being key go for sub par performance. It’s... — read more
A reason for leaving...non claims, and needs said for retained to get on the ball.
People leaving because leadership retained are not leadIng into the future even with a “vision” provided (not spelled out step by step). Some leaders retained fooled the company regarding their capabilities (performance rating) coupled with... — read more
VOLUNTARY MOVEMENT
Several people have turned in notice to leave, they found another job. They can't handle the stress at Allstate. Confirmed with CSL, a lot of this going on.
Reasons for getting fired getting dumber and dumber?
I'm thinking about all the things people got fired over and I'm coming to realise they are now dumber than ever. Reasons that trample on human dignity and result in a total atmosphere of fear among employees. I noticed that I myself am waiting for... — read more
No set SOPS for anything
Claims are a complete mess, it’s like no one knows what expected anymore and there are no set SOPS for anything. Volume and calls are out of control, customers wait HOURS to get someone on the app. Express has no idea what to do with the mass influx... — read more
Claim Load!
How is it even legal for the company to expect 4+ claims/day in an 8-5 window?!?! It is simply not possible to take the necessary time with the customer to provide a good experience. Beyond that they tried this c-ap a few years ago when handling a... — read more
Got my severance. Time to rock.
Got my money deposited finally and they can take my arbitration signature from earlier 2020 and this esignature for severance and shove it. Already talked to attorney and both agreements are void due to duress of employment and receivibg severance... — read more
What’s going on with morale?
Not sure if it is just my BU but morale has been in the gutters for the last few months. I’m trying to keep my head above it but some days can be difficult. I feel like I’m walking on eggshells half the time and I don’t even know why people are... — read more
Tired of being constantly attacked
They keep setting unreasonable goals and then they keep yelling at SLs in meetings when those goals aren't met. And when I say yelling I mean uncontrolled, bordering on harassment screaming at us. How hard is it to understand that there are limited... — read more
Waiting for the next layoff-looking over my shoulders
I was kept but I’m nervous to think in the next year or so I’ll be gone. I work with agents but they’re scared about their fate with the company. If the agents get cut then I’m gone. Noted any job can and will lay you off but this is scary times... — read more
Allstate, Writing was on the Wall in 2011
I was at the meeting in 2011 when the new VP of IT was introduced. He told us he had to divest himself from his IT consultant company in India. My buddy sitting next to me said he sounded like a nice guy. I replied to him this guy is going to cost me... — read more
Nothing could keep me here
It's really sad when the company is so far gone that employees are determined to leave no matter what. I've been looking for a new job for a few months and as soon as a half decent opportunity presents itself I'm gone. And there is nothing Allstate... — read more
You claims people think you run the company
Seriously, I have never seen a group of more entitled team. I get that u have had to undergo this every couple of years. But seriously, the regions and almost all those employees got whacked. Sales leadership got cut by more than 2/3rds. HO officers... — read more
Severance Pay
Has anyone who received their severance pay have to wait 60 days to receive it? Or was it less?
Saturday is our last day in claims,formally
How many of you that were let go,consider this a true blessing as opposed to receiving a tremendous workload as a reward for staying? To top it off they have posted many of these same claim positions. They said they let those go whose jobs were... — read more
Severance Paid Out on Thanksgiving
Hit my bank account on Thanksgiving morning. You can't make this sh– up. SMH. There is absolutely no shame with this evil corporation. This had to be a deliberate and planned way to mock the laid off. I would expect nothing less from these... — read more
How much do unhappy workers cost?
Sometimes it is not clear to me how companies benefit from having dissatisfied workers. Theoretically - dissatisfied workers are expensive workers that are not worth having in the company and in essence, it is much more profitable to have satisfied... — read more

Happy Thanksgiving!
I just wanted to take time away from our daily Allstate posts to wish everyone a safe & healthy and happy Thanksgiving. That is what is truly important especially this year.
Feeling overworked yet?
Just wondering how everyone is handling the new workload. I admit I am resentful because 1) it reminds me that my coworkers are gone and that even before 2) I already had a lot on my plate. But most of all 3) I’m doing the extra work and not getting... — read more
LOL, just lol at Allstate
Laying off thousands of people from all departments and TW telling the news it’s due to low claim count. I giggle with glee every time so see the THOUSNADS of claims rolling in with no one to work them! There is nothing they can do, there is nowhere... — read more
Last Day for RIF Employees
Nov 28 is the last day for some of us, it has gotten here so fast. So with that being said, good luck in your future endeavors to everyone who was impacted. Keep going and don’t look back! Take the knowledge you have and let your talents shine. All... — read more
Severance retracted?
Heard some folks were told by HR last week that severance was retracted for some since their old roles were reposted and available and that they needed to re-apply for returning. This seems completely wrong and contrary to the information (although... — read more
Allstate Layoffs 2021
How likely is that there will be Allstate Layoffs 2021? Any news or rumors?
LinkedIn Learning
Got an email from Allstate that they signed me up for LinkedIn learning. Is this a company wide thing or was this targeted for specific employees for an impending layoff?
Anyone want to take bets on when the next round of layoffs is going to be?
I’m thinking sometime in March.
Truth must come out
As a front line employee I can assure you all that a reckoning is coming for this company. I have been accumulating data on hours worked (which is grossly abused by ALL) along with current practices that the company is using to intentionally lessen... — read more
Allstate holds severance hostage until laid off workers waive rights to tell the truth
Alllstate is too afraid to allow former workers their due process. They make them sign away all their rights to sue for age discrimination and many other , by withholding severance. Allstate knows most people need their severance to survive... — read more

Was anyone else told they have to work mandatory overtime? We were told this week.
Severance is a Gift
First of all, it s—s that this is not the first time Allstate has laid off people during the holidays. My heart goes out to all of you experiencing it. I have been laid off before (not by Allstate) and if was a great experience even with the job... — read more
