Will Allstate be able to do the same?
Evaluation consultant going?
Any one who handles bodily knows the misery of having evaluations picked apart by ECs. Will this position be outsourced, or eliminated? I have worked for 3 other auto insurers and never encountered anyone or anything like an EC. Does anyone know... — read more
Allstate headed down wrong path
Allstate is that dad you see at your kids basketball game. The one who was a good athlete "back in the day" but now wears jeans with piping, shops at the buckle, and has the LeBron 2022 collection of athletic wear. Any trend he's on it. Von Dutch... — read more
Transformative Growth from Local Office Perspective
Allstate has taken away all independent owner phone systems. The phone rings 75% less and they know this. You will ocasionally get a policy that they say was a call forward after you closed. Our longtime customers are not able to speak with the agent... — read more
You expect too much from Allstate
Allstate's goal is to provide mediocre and cost-effective services (for the company), rather than seeking excellence in the field. These are just facts. This is the way things are - few companies function any differently. This is not new and anybody... — read more
Transformative Growth: Token Corporate Bu11sh1t
When introduced in 2019 and 2020 Transformative Growth was advertised as changing the business to make our prices more competitive and to grow faster than our competition. Well after many rounds of layoffs, implementation of horrible processes... — read more
Raise clause
For all of us who rec'd a raise, make sure you read the clause they list which reads "salary adjustments are contingent on your employment with Allstate and not with any future company if Allstate discontinues their line of business".......this... — read more
Great Purge
Number of Allstate agents falls to lowest level in memory That’s down from 9,300 a year ago and 10,400 two years ago, according to filings. The figure topped 12,000 in recent years before beginning its decline. Even that current number understates... — read more
Shareholders rewarded with a 4.7% dividend hike
Not bad for a company that lost 1.4 billion dollars in 2022
Allstate Rewards Shareholders With a 4.7% Dividend Hike
Not bad for a company that lost 1.4 billion dollars in 2022
They don't care at all
Another colleague of mine gave notice. I have not noticed that the management is concerned about it or that it cares in any way to stop the increasing departure of employees. Some say it isn't so but maybe it's just hard to accept that they don't... — read more
For a company trying to get rid of employees
That don't hand out 9 percent salary increases. Really nice salary bumps for many today
Finally I will give my 2 week notice.
Can’t wait to inform my RCL that I have accepted an offer from a better company. I will have a live teams call sonI can see the look on his woke face…
First Quarter 2023 already looking like a disaster
Signs point towards worse than 4th quarter 2022 thus far. But there is still March to go.
Future of the agent/office
Can anyone explain what the future holds for an LSP? So many functions are going overseas, chat, online, self serve. Agents commissions and earning slashed. What does 2023 look like?
Predicting doom and gloom
I'm not the least bit happy about the fact that I'm still here, but that's no reason to constantly predict doom and gloom for Allstate. I think that some are so disappointed with this company that they would even like it to happen... As ugly as... — read more
Is Eric Brandt the next to walk the plank?
I mean "pursue other opportunities / spend more time with his family" I think the clock has run out on blaming Glenn, and Tom certainly isn't going to take responsibility for the string of quarterly losses (which I'm guessing will continue in... — read more
Allstate on the acquisition market?
A couple of late week reports state Allstate may soon be acquired by a company currently outside the industry to shore up their insurance side in relation to their investment side. Business Morning and Hot Stock both reporting this potential. Target... — read more
Allstate non-renewing commercial lines in 5 states
More bad news. NY, NJ, FL, CA and Louisiana. They are actually allowing this to just run-off and cancel. CL underwriting will be all AI soon.
As we continue to bleed out staff
It’s funny. Upper management is trying to be so nicey nicey right now. All the happy wishes and positive “thank yous” and trying, to show an interest in the personal lives of the people. Don’t go there ! It’s so plastic and fake. Most can see right... — read more
What happened with RMBC layoffs
I'm in ASIC and we were rebadged to the vendor or sent to benefits. However, I was curious on RMBC's fate. No one told us anything in our dept
Different ways they try to get rid of people
Although my personal experience is not like that, I fully believe all those who say that their managers are doing everything in their power to get rid of them. Apart from the usual bad atmosphere in the company, which actually forces everyone... — read more
Before you bash Wilson.
Just think how you would feel if someone talked about your dad or uncle the way people bash Wilson
How is this legal!?!
I am a front line adjuster and there are processors sending correspondence to customers and contractors using my signature. Wtf!? Seems like an attorney would have a field day with that! Mind you these people are not licensed
Before 2020 allstate was a great place to work
Don't get me wrong. Working from home isn't bad. However, now that upper management sees that most of the jobs can be done remotely they are going to outsource everything and send all the jobs to vendors in other countries. Allstate no longer cares... — read more
Wilson does treat people with respect.
As much as people talk about the negatives about Allstate, nobody can point to even 1 real example of him not treating people with respect.
People need to vote with their wallets
This transformation will continue until it has a negative effect on the bottom line "if it has a negative effect" I for one am not pleased when a large corporation makes me speak to an overseas representative. The language barrier is intolerable, the... — read more
Cheap=vulnerable
Sending customer facing work to India will only lead to poor customer service, legal and controllable risks. Expect savings up front that will then expose how poor these decisions are long term. Clearly those in power now have little to no long term... — read more
Allstate currently is a dumpster fire!
Allstate currently is all over the place! They increase rated by over 25% on average and in many cases over 45% and expect customer to stay with the company. They are hiring 3rd party vendor employees to be in customer service and the give them the... — read more
Does anyone know if allstate has future layoff plans or sending to vendors for other areas
I know ASIC, RMBC, and CCC had them but are there any other areas of the company that are planning them?
Really makes you scratch your head
Morale is at an all time low. Production is way down, yet no one points to the fact that we have priced ourselves out of the market entirely, taking 25% rates here and there while competition takes 10-15%. I love Allstate as a company, love the... — read more
BTE
Curve was set to BTE this year as a power play …. make employees feel appreciated with a higher rating but then blame earning for lack of an increase.
I assumed that the results would be bad
However, could anyone have guessed that the results would be this bad? Forget about job safety, no job is safe at Allstate.
Dinner and Drinks with Wilson
If you could have dinner and drinks at a 5 star Chicago steakhouse, and then go to a scotch bar after to discuss your career, would anyone here really turn that opportunity down!? I think the answer is NO
Morale losses about even with fiscal losses
Both completely in the toilet. And they expect 100% effort and smiles on faces. Allstate brass are as delusional as they are stupid. Give them what they give you. A no, a middle finger, and about 40% effort. You'll feel much better and less stressed. — read more
