What if we had a federal tax for large corporations equal to the percentage of workforce employed or contracted abroad? 10% staff located in India and Ireland? 10% tax.
ECs
I don’t know of any other companies who use Evaluation Consultants in claims. Everyone else delegates adjusters a blanket authority based on their level, and if more is needed they go to their managers who in turn have to seek additional authority... — read more

Allstate stock
Allstate continues to drop and is now closed under 93.00.. Are the investors finally losing confidence in Wilson and gang on the long term vision for the company???
Esurance underwriting
They are eliminating all esurance underwriting people
CSL and RCL
I unfortunately highly believe these two positions are goners.
Redundant
It sure feels terrible knowing my job I have so proudly worked hard for all these years may possibly be considered “redundant”. Isn’t that a good way to say thank you? Thanks Allstate for kicking us while we are down.
Allstate leadership doesn't care about the future
If they did, they would not be getting rid of the most experienced and most knowledgeable employees in every new layoff round. Instead of investing in the future, they are gutting it. It's not too hard to figure out there is no long-term plan for... — read more
Active Job Postings
Why are there 200+ open positions in midst of active layoffs? How about levering internal talent for these opportunities? Aren't we encouraged to learn new skills? Be agile. Well ALL, be transparent...and not by just saying the word over and over.

Has anyone heard more about the FSL role and how it will be impacted?
Allstate ethics and Motives Quize

For 30 plus years
I have had Allstate insurance for my 30 plus years of employment with the company. Even though I knew I was paying significantly higher and did not always feel process changes were process friendly... Felt it was important to show loyalty to the... — read more
Anybody stll likes working here?
Let's be honest, working at Allstate wasn't always this bad. On the contrary, I used to enjoy and truly love my job years ago. But that has completely changed. Now even the idea of heading to the office makes me feel sick to my stomach. Am I the only... — read more
Why should we stay??
Even if you make the cut why would you want to stay here? I personally cannot stay and will look after seeing my peers treated like dirt in a pandemic. The way the company has handled these “transparent “ cuts, previous cuts, terrible/low raises... — read more
Skills assessment format?
I keep hearing different things about who will get an assessment, when they will find out, when they will actually take it, etc. I even saw a post showing to content or sections of the assessment. I was wondering if anyone knew the format it will be... — read more
Who Controls Allstate?
Both past and present. How did those currently in control come into power and why are they acting with such callous disregard for loyal employees and American people? Why are they so deceitful and two faced? This is just wrong and” they” should be... — read more

Another long time customer
I am another long time customer and wanted to see why Allstate employment was trending on Twitter.... The animosity of the employees that I see here does not make me as a customer feel that I am in good hands....particularly what I am reading on... — read more
Wow
As a long time Allstate customer I feel terrible about what this company is doing to its employees if it’s true about what I am reading. I really really hope that it’s not true but I understand they want to lower our premiums which is great because... — read more
Ken rosen
Really makes you wonder about the timing of the exit of Ken Rosen after leading claims for Only 2 years to make way for the entrance of Shapiro... I wonder if he made known a concern to what is happening and was forced out...
Tom Wilson doubletalk
About 6 months ago Tom Wilson appeared on I believe CNBC and scolded American companies for not doing enough to take care of their workers contributing to a deteriorating perception of capitalism. He said that companies needed to do More for... — read more
Failing the assessment
Is anyone else thinking of purposefully trying to give the wrong answers on the assessment to get the severance and move on with your life. The severance will give some tome to find something else and this may be the kick in the pants to leave a... — read more
Employee discounts
If we leave, has anyone heard when we lose our employee discounts? Is it the day we are off the books? I want to have my business moved to a different carrier but it may be more expensive with any employee discount that we currently have. Has anyone... — read more
Those on the inside
Non Allstate employee here...but a customer with Allstate. The only thing that I know is that I pay a lot for insurance but have never had a claim so I don’t know what the service is like when they need to pay out money. If we are getting ripped off... — read more
You’re in Good Hands as long as you’re a shareholder or top executive.
This company is ridiculous. They don’t care about their long term dedicated employees or customers or transparency. If they did they wouldn’t be forcing them to take assessments in an effort to keep their jobs and would recognize and honor their... — read more

This is destroying employee morale
And people's productivity along with it. Don't they see they are not just harming us (something they couldn't care less about) but also the entire company and its bottom line (something they really should care about if for nothing else but their own... — read more
I can’t take it anymore!
The waiting is k–ling me! If and when it happens, do they let you know and walk you to the door? Or do they give you like two months notice?
Sales Department Impact?
Does anyone know if the sales department will be impacted? Especially in regards to those Esurance employees who are slowly being transitioned to Allstate?
Unethical and cheap
For a company that prides itself on doing what is right and ethical, there are some extremely shady business dealings going on. The Government/Trump tax cuts not reinvested back into the company, and a May (during quarantine) 300+ million stock... — read more
Con artists

None of you know anything! They aren’t going to reveal anything until they are ready to let someone go.
Any mass firings yet?

When and where?
Old Pension...wait for interest rates to be announced in Sept
As interest rates decline, lump sum payouts increase. What you need to know is that you will probably get about 7% more if you wait until 2021 to take the lump sum. The rate is determined at the end of August and announced in late Sept. All three... — read more
