I was an employee at liberty mutual that was a part of shapiros purge. You are a mirror image of what occurred at LM. Shapiro left a demoralized employee group that still struggles to believe anything that management says... The moment that he was... — read more 

Let’s face it. We are only as good as the leader. Take a good look at the leader... CEO Tom Wilson. He was drunk as fûck in the June town hall and more than likely was not suppose to announce the RIFs & lay offs yet. Why would he care, he’s sitting... — read more 

In looking at the top 5 officers total compensation on a yearly basis, you see consistency. When you look at Tom Wilson's total compensation, you see something totally different. Look at the pay, the avg employee pay, and CEO Ratios. These are from... — read more 

Anyone’s regional leader advised you must schedule future pto days due to the end of heat approaching? And only want people to have 5 days left remaining.

Like many of you I just want to know where I stand. Do I have a job or don’t I? Like many of you I’m stressed, scared, a little angry and just want to know my fate. Good or bad, I just want to know. But I do appreciate how this RIF is being... — read more 

I am old enough to remember when one of Allstate’s goals was to be “an employer of choice” for folks coming out of college. It appears that we have evolved to a point where there appears to be an anger at thegeneral employee from those who currently... — read more 

Instead of smiling on the camera have some concern and please start telling employees if they are going to be laid off so they can start looking for jobs. The spouses of the employees think this is a horrendous way you were handling the situation

Someone should notify Kool and the Gang and Pink Floyd their music is being used by Allstate. How can they afford to pay the royalties? Our expenses are WAY TO HIGH in the market GS said over and over.

Was interesting the Town Hall lead with that this time. Confirms what I thought : HR and who knows what other home office blowhards follow the posts on this board. I’m surprised I haven’t seen a “What does a Lay-off.com Lurker do?” position article... — read more 

Honestly, where the he!! is Wilson. He's been missing since the June 11th meeting to most of us commoners. Is he on the freaking lam or something? Did they freeze him like Walt Disney? It's incredible he hasn't shown his toupee during all this... — read more 

Jim stated in the meeting that we will have 60 days to leave the company after we find out if we are considered redundant, and that if we leave before those 60 days are up we won’t get our severance package. If a company offers you a job, they... — read more 

Making everyone wait to see who is in the “thousands” bucket is terrible. I can already see the morale plummeting. A lot of talent is going to leave out of fear because they just keep dragging this out slowly. These are not the Allstate values they... — read more 

Just when you think you’ve settled into a corporate company that isn’t “just like all the others.” I suppose that no one should be surprised that this is happening, regardless of what you thought of Allstate prior to Transformative Growth being... — read more 

I am a long term employee. I have had a good career and always bled “Allstate blue.” I was proud to work for this corporation and was proud of the work that we did. Never in my nightmares would I have anticipated a time when we would have a senior... — read more

Even in normal, non-COVID, times this plan of telling us in June that our jobs were in jeopardy but waiting until October to finalize it is nothing short of sadistic. Most companies would not be so slow and transparent. It almost seems like we are... — read more 

Used to work for a competitor and I was laid off close to my 15 year mark. I liked working there, it was a great place. It was also however like a warm blanket for a long nap. Do not ever get complacent at work. You may think you are super well... — read more

Gs response to one question was heck no , we’re going to do this the Allstate way ...... um hey hoss that’s what we’re afraid of you stooge !

Anyone in LDU anywhere, any state with Allstate, got an assessment? No one I know has. You need all of LDU! My manager states this isn't a redundant role and she thinks we will be safe.

I will do the bare minimum of work until I know for sure. They can keep me working until their designated time but I will be taking it easy af.

I can’t take anymore months of this. How do we continue like this?! This is just wrong wrong wrong.

Ha! Let me answer a question that I happened to see in the forum I mean was emailed to me. And also let me see how I can spin this around. How can we spend 4 billion on nat gen when we are trying to cut expenses.

They are monitoring this forum. There were a number of posts about recording meetings and now they started the meeting telling us no recordings allowed.

This is just becoming ridiculous people.

Poor choice of opening songs

Seriously, just tell us if we have 60 days from today or 60 days from September etc... You said we in claims will know by the end of this month-stick by what you say. You drill it in us to hold ourselves accountable to customers when setting... — read more

There are over 1000 agencies for sale, considering a sale or considering TPP while this clown show continues. Very sad state of affairs across the country and many state zero confidence in Upper management.
