Since they’re not sharing detail with everyone, just what group you are personally in, what jobs are moving to India? I’m assuming the comments that mention it refer to ABO gaining something more than they already do?

I dont think Allstate knows who they want to lay off! I think they are using an assessment to decide. Or they already know who and just saving face. This is just weird! Makes no sense. Tired of all the waiting. Thank you tho. This pushed me to go... — read more 

Tom Wilson's salary in 2018 and 2017 was over 18 million dollars. Way more that what State Farm's CEO makes. Maybe that's why State Farms insurance premiums are lower

We need to post on Allstate site on facebook and let the people know who have a policy what Allstate is doing and moving the jobs to a different country ,, They will hate that this is crazy

Will we have a legal right to know our assessment results of fired. What if we know we have high meets or exceeds the past two years, have 20 years tenure and then get fired. We’d have to do miserable on the assessment to even be let go.

Are they only doing them in big groups at the end of months or are the continually laying off individuals during the month?

Why can Allstate let the older employees at retirement age retire with a package. What a horrible time to lay off people with unemployment being at the highest rate and worries about Covid. Shame on Allstate.

all of this speculation is causing unnecessary stress and anxiety. Allstate needs to post all of the roles that are not being effected, redundant or being eliminated. Offices that are being closed need to be communicated company wide along with... — read more

TW was falling from the grace and was on the chopping block..that is until the 2008 financial crisis. Thanks to the Federal Reserve lowering the interest rates. Allstate like many companies borrowed money at near zero percent, then invested the money... — read more

7,700 have been identified as redundant jobs that's why you are taking an assessment so they can figure out in your department who to keep and let go. So 3,700 of that 7,700 will be laid off. YW.

Tom Wilson was the comptroller for Sears and if you look at the history of Sears, you'll see the beginning of the fall of Sears.

For those who make this cut, once the merger is complete and all those additional bodies come on board..... get ready for round two.....

The “sigh of relief” from those left behind will end....once the transfer of work from those laid off begins and the new work continues to roll in like a Hurricane...... 2/3 of the people to do all of the work..... Have fun!!!
