Incoming layoffs?
Been hearing rumors about an incoming layoff round at Allstate sometime this month, but there is very little detail involved. Frankly I'm not sure where the rumor originated, but too many people have been mentioning it to simply ignore it. Anybody... — read more
What is Allstate’s strategic plan re offices
There is lot of nervousness and some posters here claim to be in management. Since no one seems to know at work is there a plan to close offices and move work to regional centers in NC IL and TX or not? Upper management has some plan because the NC... — read more
We Win Together. We are a Team.
Been lurker here and my first and last post. I see many points and anger and defenders of company. I’m grateful to be employed and have worked hard many years but what is really evident, and I’ve seen decline weekly in workplace, the complete... — read more
Recruiter Inteference
There seems to be a lot of interference in regards to IT recruiting at the home office. A lot of qualified developers are being rejected instantly. Someone should take a look at what the recruiters are doing especially Jillian.
QFC slow down
Maybe it's my imagination but it seems the QFC claims are slowing down and the number of Pune call outs are increasing. I have read a comment on this site Allstate has a plan to keep those working in the states as VA only and move all the initial QFC... — read more
Hey Glenn where's our $1,000 employee checks?

Shortsighted Staffing Model
Up here in the Washington claims office we have LDU adjusters taking 9-10 claims a day because of inadequate staffing. Its been than way for 4 or 5 months now since the mass auto layoffs. These employees are so overrun with calls that the rest of our... — read more
Allstate s---s.
Allstate s---s. Worse service ever. Geico all the way.
Atlanta Adjusters Layoffs and Call-Backs
What a pathetic excuse for a company. They laid off a bunch of adjusters in Atlanta and now are calling them back because they realized VA and QFC are a joke. Then the ones they called back were informed they had pay their severance back. Allstate... — read more
More layoffs at Allstate?
Do we know if we are done with layoffs for a while? I thought the last round was it at least for the foreseeable future, but then I saw a few people mention more incoming layoffs and I am no longer sure. Do we have any information on possible layoffs... — read more
We don’t mind being busy and working hard!
Allstate already trimmed the fat with the layoffs. Now they are hiring field adjusters here and there in several large markets after realizing QFC is creating more work such as supplements and we are paying more rental. Millennials are shaping the... — read more
Being noble and loyal will bring you nothing at Allstate
To all of you self righteous noble employees, you are nothing but a number to the big guys in Chicago, Texas or next stop Bombay. Your time will come and the only thing your ambition and fine attitude will have got you is an ulcer. Watch your pension... — read more
Allstate gambling that QFC & Virtual will revolutionize the Insurance industry
CEO Shapiro is centralizing departments and offices in Dallas and Charlotte, reducing staff and hoping QFC & Virtual change the way auto damage claims are handled. Are shops willing to jump on board? More importantly, will our policyholders buy into... — read more
Allstate will always need field adjusters
Allstate needs field adjusters, albeit not as many as there were before the layoffs. Shops are starting to push back in many markets with comments like,”we’re not going to do your job for you by taking photos or calling a virtual department.” There... — read more
Allstate Layoffs 2018
I needed to vent a bit as there are many rumors about layoffs in Northbrook.
Allstate management
It's clear reading the posts that managers are viewing this site and responding. How come? Don't you feel comfortable to call a staff meeting and ask your subordinates what their concerns are? Ha. Just think if you actually shared the information you... — read more
Anyone see their severance pay yet? It's been 31 days so far. Are they waiting for day 59?
Unacceptable for a company with their assets. I have spoken w/ friends that have been laid off from BOA and Verizon. They did not have to wait for their severance.
Withholding severance for months
I'm certain HR isn't answering questions due to liability concerns. I can tell you it's sad what an organization of this magnitude has done to the employees in regards to severance. In our state if you were provided severance (in this case not... — read more

No, we can't all just leave Allstate
I'm curious about the people just saying "leave". Do you live in a wonderful world of no bills and money trees? Its not something you can just leave and hope it works out. You guys must be management hoping to save a severance payout. I was going... — read more
Loss of field adjusters will hurt customers

Too many things are wrong
I've been a field adjuster with Allstate for some time now. HR did their geographical mapping in all areas to determine who they will involuntary terminate their positions. It looked like Ray Charles picked these adjusters. I was one of them. Does... — read more
Anyone receive severance payment yet?
I'm in the So Cal area and speaking with others that were also laid off it looks like no payments have been made yet at least in this market.
Anyone know about unemployment??
Can a person draw unemployment after being laid off while waiting on a severance package? I have a feeling that Allstate will drag their feet getting the severance payment out. Just wondering if anyone knows... Thanks in advance.
This could have been handled much better
I can't speak for everyone, and I can't blame Allstate for wanting to stay up on technology even if that means letting some go. But this had to be in the making. Why hire someone, have them relocate knowing full well they are going to be laying them... — read more
For those who say Allstate didn't have layoffs
Of course they try to keep it as quiet as possible. It's only announced if they are legally required to or a reporter gets wind of it. Get you head out of the sand... — read more
Hiring among layoffs

Layoffs are happening, Allstate is just keeping them on the low
Nobody in my office knew about the amount of layoffs going on in other offices. We haven't had a town hall meeting since the qfc announcement back in the end of last year/ early this year (don't remember exactly when it was. I see a lot of managers... — read more

So, is this still supposed to be an announcement date?
QuickFoto Claim is not working
Express employee here. Qfc is a complete disaster. We will be losing so many customers. I take calls from just as many older customers who don't use technology, as younger folks who do. So to the customers who have been with us for 20+ years we are... — read more
