If I used to have some kind of work/life balance before, now I don't have it at all. Overloaded with work, I feel like I'm constantly working and I'm totally exhausted. I desperately need to find something new soon. Does anyone here actually... — read more 

I left Allstate 6 months ago. I was worried about layoffs even though I worked 7 days a week. At my new job I am not micromanaged anywhere near to the extent I was at Allstate. When I review a demand, it is not picked apart line by line by someone... — read more 

Had our monthly department town hall about returning to office requirements today. We are not of any one location but we all at one point were in an office before the pandemic. We were told that while they do not know of any firm dates or... — read more

How many experienced folks will Big Blue lose over these pension interest rates? Many long-time employees will take a huge hit if they stay passed November. Get ready for a mass exodus.

The thing is that Allstate looks for 2 thing, people to either get promoted to get more money and stay or for people to take that small raise each year and not leave. The ones that don't like what is going on leave, and that is why I gave my... — read more

Should I complain and do I stand any chance of righting this wrong.

Another meeting with no mention of layoffs. I’m just going to have to go and stop waiting for it to happen. I wish I was old enough to retire.

Certainly there are many more, but one of the ways for this company to keep some good employees who are still here and thus slow down its decline - is not to make more pushes for return to the office. It is not the first time that I hear from... — read more

There are many complaints from those who are stuck here expecting a promotion that never came. I would never risk losing so much time stuck on one job. The most important thing is to know when to quit. Why don't people learn from the experience of... — read more 

That is all these announcements are. Further demoralizing and creating a hostile and fear filled environment to try and stress and depress their workforce into quitting so a few rich shareholders and overpaid officers can run off with a little more... — read more 

It's terrible what mediocrities I have to work with here. Is it that there is no more professionalism or is it that nobody cares about being professional anymore?

I have to speak out about the market sales associate program and why it is failing. First I would bet that 75 % of new hires don't last 6 months. Most fail or leave because they are constantly on probation. Allstate burns through cash recruiting... — read more

It is quite understandable why many have come to hate their job here, a job they once enjoyed. The problem is, however, that many stay despite having lost all motivation. However, if all those who despise working here left, I wonder who would remain... — read more 

Tommy "strongly encourages" us to return to available and open offices per today's connections meetings. Some of us saw this coming. They couldn't sell and turn over a lot of the offices during the pandemic so now they want them to be used. We can... — read more
