I’m in a hurry to get out of here, but I don’t want to make a mistake of accepting the first opportunity that comes up and once again ending up in a company that doesn’t value even its best employees. On the other hand, I absolutely have to get... — read more 

Cutting in half number of allowable occurrences for UNs and terminations AND no longer linking days for occurences. So instead of 5 days being one occurrence it is 5 occurrences. What a joke! I guess this is TPTB's way to get a head start on "lay... — read more

Leave. Just leave. It's doable. There are good jobs out there. I left a few months ago. I have zero reasons to worry about job security at my new job. That's such a refreshing feeling. I didn't even realize just how high-strung I was all the time... — read more 

I have been with allstate a few years now. This year has been the most draining. I have had three times the work load where as others on my team have had to do less. My managers always ask me to do more and it's tiring. Allstate takes advantage of... — read more 

Ever notice that Allstate always talks about being an industry leader but then when changes like this are made they justify them by saying that they're keeping up with industry trends?!? Leaders don't follow trends. This post made me laugh. Why... — read more 

Has anyone heard or know what areas will see layoffs next year?

I lost a good and highly competent manager to layoffs about six months ago. It made no sense when she was laid off and it makes even less sense now that I've gotten to know her replacement. He has no understanding of what our routine is and he seems... — read more

I always knew what I wanted to do. I never thought I wanted to do anything other than the job I loved until I came to Allstate. Now not only do I want to leave this company, but I have started to despise my job here. I think there is surprising a lot... — read more

I had a little debate with my colleagues about it, so I wonder what you think. Will Allstate be sold in the near future? And why do you think that? Despite everything, I don't think it will, at least not in the next few years.

So any “raise” less that that is actually a PAY CUT. Policy premiums are keeping up with inflation so I would hope our wages would too. Just a friendly reminder with “performance reviews” coming up

I occasionally post my resume on various job boards, I've been doing it for years just to see if there's anything out there but it was always ignored - until now. Color me shocked when I started receiving offers in the last two months, including one... — read more

If the economy turns around, do you anticipate any Allstate layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?

Bring the plantation down!

Simply put, everyone I know who decided or needed to move on is better off for it. As much as they loved working with their AllState coworkers, they have moved on and have a better financial opportunity and job perspective. GOODNESS

At this point of your goal to cut expenses (I agree), keep cutting HO and field HO people. If not, make them work for you and deliver results. They are not managed.

We had it quarterly communication meeting this morning and Gary has mastered Tom Wilson's playbook of not actually answering any questions he's asked or blaming the Enterprise for the delay in action. Some notes: Sounds like they aren't interested... — read more 

I think they are. In every sense they are getting ahead of this company and now I regret that I have moved here from one such company that's going forward, while Allstate is going backwards. Of course, it's not ideal there either, far from... — read more 

We are not paid enough for the cr-p they've been putting us through and for the amount of work they've been getting from us in return. When's the last time we had a decent raise? I can't remember. With the inflation going up, what we get now is worth... — read more

Does anyone know if there will be layoffs soon? I’m thinking about whether to go or wait to be laid off and pick up my severance. It’s not worth waiting if there won’t be any cuts going soon.

I recently left this hellhole for another carrier, does anyone know how to transfer over the funds from their 401k?

Wall Street not impressed with the TG progress. And they are committing to another 3 point reduction in expense ratio over next 3 years. That can't be good on the jobs front.
