Sometimes I feel ashamed in front of customers

I completely understand why customers are increasingly dissatisfied. Obviously, those who should be thinking the most about customer satisfaction don't care about it at all? Instead of them, I am the one feeling ashamed.

3rd/4th week of July

When it all begins with August and September being the big months. Roles and employees transferring to contractors November through 1st quarter next year and layoffs going into effect October through December. Pay for those moved to contractors... — read more 

A matter of how long it can last

The real issue is how long the captive agency system can survive in our industry. They can’t simply keep cutting commissions and expect everyone to fall in line. There will be a breaking point which will come sooner than you think. I've been... — read more 

Know your rights

You are not chattel. You agreed to work for Allstate, not company XYZ. If Allstate no longer has a job for you, you are entitled to severance. Every company is different and there is no way Allstate can claim that working at Allstate is the same as... — read more 

BEWARE

I got a new job with another carrier. I called my boss today and gave my 2 weeks notice. My boss said she was sad to see me go and casually asked why I was leaving. I told her I got a job with another insurance company. She asked why. I told her the... — read more 

It’s tiring to constantly expect the worst

I try to never worry ahead of time, but at Allstate it’s impossible to be relaxed and not worry. The only thing that calms my anxiety is looking for a new job. Hasn’t it become tedious to work in a company where it’s almost impossible to expect... — read more 

Applause

What a pain this new recognition is. Can’t they just put $100 in my next check as opposed to getting all these emails and signing up for a temporary Mastercard? I also find it odd that my recognition relies on MY PEERS recognizing me? Does this... — read more 

Wouldn't It Be More Beneficial To Just Sell?

I mean with the massive layoffs and outsourcing that has been confirmed by directors and home office this is going to totally ki-l the brand. Once this gets out to the mainstream customers are going to run for the hills in mass. Wouldn't it make more... — read more 

Know your rights

Remember, you do not have to accept a new position at a vendor to Allstate, even if offered to you. It is your decision who your employer is, not anyone else’s. You accepted employment at Allstate, not company XYZ. If Allstate terminates you — even... — read more 

Allstate interviews

So I am curious to know if it's just me or not. I have applied to like 5 positions in the last 2 years and know 2 friends that have applied multiple positions as well with allstate. (We all work there). Everytime they reject us they say it's because... — read more 

The feeling of working for a competitor

I would like to get an offer from a direct competitor. Employees are more valued and respected there. But still, I think for those who have been here for a long time, despite everything, it is not easy to go to a competitor. How does it feel, those... — read more 

It has become so obvious

That the majority of the posts and comments are being made by a select few to drive an agenda and fear. It is crazy how these few attack everything and feel entitled because they have been at this place for decades

Revamped deny/delay

In going with India reps the new consulting group is implementing a process that is quite simply not traceable. Dropped calls, unintelligible customer service reps, whatever means necessary to irritate people until they give up and go away. Just... — read more 

A very long search for a new job

My intention is not to offend those who are stuck here for any reason, but to encourage those who might give up looking for a better job after a failed few months of searching. I think I’m a record holder when it comes to time spent looking for a... — read more 

Capuzzi the scape goat?

Capuzzi was likely the first high level sacrificial lamb to get the sh@@k for atrocious auto results…..Let’s not end with him..: We know that Wilson and Shapiro will chop any and everyone below them when the bling gets tougher because of course they... — read more 

Look out..

Glens work and destruction at Allstate is nearly complete… Watch out American workers….pray that your company is not his next stop… Liberty Mutual appears to have recovered… Allstate and Their once proud workforce will not…..

Layoffs

Nervous about future layoffs not sure which department will it be in 😭😭

Lee Hecht Harrison??

Received a phone call this afternoon from this company asking to advise me on my new career search. They talked about me getting back on my feet. They know that I work for Allstate. No idea why they called me. They want to assist me in resume and... — read more 

2 weeks notice

I gave my 2 weeks notice today. My manager asked where I was going and I thought of no reason to lie so I told her to another insurance company. She then told me I am going to be terminated today and I cannot work the next 2 weeks. She told me this... — read more 

Walk Out

Receiving information on a walkout across the country for claims and technology groups and now hearing chatter on agents and staff walking out. Any truth please share on what the date is?

Embrassemt

After 27 yrs and always a BTE rating, I left the company I never thought I’d leave. The way they treat employees is pathetic…..1) pension plan revoked 2) way they treat retiree insurance 3) dpa and all awards gone 4) health insurance prices 5)... — read more 

Top level executive in auto retires

He had a sweet deal and large bonus. Easy Capeezee job. Why retire? Only with big blue for a few years. Top heavy organization here. Wonder if he was encouraged to retire. House of cards beginning to collapse.

The market is still good

The market is good, but still, it's not easy to get something significantly better. I have been trying to get a better offer for a month now and I hope to be able to get out of here soon. It is in my interest to leave as soon as possible because... — read more 

It's time for transparency

The cat is obviously out of the bag at least here in CCC from our leadership regarding mass layoffs, outsourcing, and jobs transferring that is coming. This seems to be impacting claims and other areas as well considering what is all coming out from... — read more 

Town Hall

Thursday. More double talk, while smiling in our faces telling us there will be no layoffs. In fact, we’re hiring! Blah blah blah.

Serious question.

Does anyone have any idea when the plan on announcing these potential layoffs? I hate that they keep us hanging.

COBRA?

I know sometimes HR posts on here. Does anyone know how Cobra works? Does Allstate send you info or is there a site you can go to? A .gov site? I have searched online but it is really confusing. I might want to get it for a few months before my... — read more 

What happened to the thread from HR employee?

Literally there this morning and now gone, a thread that started I work in HR and they can deny you severance and possibly unemployment if you refuse employment when the department is outsourced. Are you afraid of retribution?

Returning equipment

I’ve been gone from Allstate for well over a year and just got a letter in the mail that my equipment was never returned, threatening to take “more formal means to obtain Allstate’s property or that property’s monetary value”. Thankfully I had the... — read more
