I don't know a single manager, not to mention anybody from the ELT, who has tried to boost morale in the past several years. I mean genuinely tried, not just spewing out the usual platitudes. No attempts were made to reduce the number of people... — read more 

I am one of the 40 adjusters moving to the CCC starting Monday as a part of the CCC's new Claims Engagement Team. No more adjysting, no more making excuses with pi---d off shops of this company. No more 12+ hour days just to keep my job, no more... — read more 

Straight down. “Talent assessments” i.e., Wr already decided who were going to lay off but are using this stupid assessment to make it look legit. Run lawyers, run!

I could see the writing on the wall in 2020. I left after 22 years with my pension, 401(k). No worries. I had a job within two weeks. Right now is the best time to look for a new job. It is always easiest to look for a job while you have a job. I am... — read more 

Job requirements at Allstate: We're looking for someone with the wisdom of a 50-year old, the experience of a 40-year old, the drive of a 30-year old, and the pay scale of a 20-year old. Stolen from here:... — read more 

Do you constantly feel like they are going to get rid of you? Most Allstate employees constantly feel like they are about to get axed. How healthy is that for employees? How much does it benefit Allstate itself? The situation here has never been... — read more 

OK, they know how to give bad excuses for those cuts. Do you remember any good moves lately? I don't. They make the most of the fact that some of us have a hard time getting a new job. However, if they continue like this, I am afraid that very... — read more 

There will be meetings starting in the next two weeks to address talent assessments and RIF to follow. I don’t care who is going to call BS. For the rest of us with a non delusional mind, do with this info what you like.

Someone mentioned the app in one of the posts and I would love to know why that app is so bad? Is it possible they couldn’t have made it better? I don't get whether it is made to bring in customers or to drive away customers? /s.

There is no clear career path for me at Allstate and I am very aware of that. It’s high time to consider a new approach because I’m stuck here in a job with no possibility of progression and I’m just wasting my time. I would love to stay in this... — read more 

Allstate did a great job 👏 ruining the morale and motivation of the associates left behind after their RIF tactics of 2020. Now with pandemic waning, people are leaving ASAP for other jobs, disability, or retirement. With a ton of customer service... — read more 

People are quick to complain but slow when it comes to improving themselves and creating better opportunities for the future. Allstate is not a good place to work, we all already know that. There's not much we can do to change that. But what you can... — read more 

Since Encompass employees make more than Nat Gen ones, does that mean most if not all Encompass employees will be let go during the next RIF? Nat Gen is doing so much hiring and I'm sure at lower salaries which is what Allstate wants. Why is... — read more 

Will they hold a townhall meeting again to announce the assessments?

It just means that Allstate learns nothing from its mistakes, that leadership goes from mistake to mistake, and that there is no hope for this company. I totally agree when someone said that it wouldn’t be a surprise if Allstate ended up as Sears... — read more 

As a former Esurance employee, I can say the process Brandt designed worked well. He wants to streamline processes, and remove roadblocks, and it better for all involved. People here keep calling him an As----e, but he is not. He genuinely cares... — read more 

I see so many people here boasting about finding new jobs and leaving Allstate, but do you mind posting your age as well? Something tells me all of you are in your thirties, forties at best. I know a lot of people who are trying to get out but nobody... — read more 

We move over for 6 weeks of training to become the CCC's "Claims Engagement Team" where we will assist customers with their current claims and to answer claims related questions and concerns. We are told we will no longer be doing any adjusting or... — read more 

Per a meeting today, these assessments will be given in August.

I read posts saying Allstate is doing the right thing because today’s customers ONLY care about a “low price.” Customers only care about price to a point…and that point comes at the first claim moment of truth… You can be sure that they are not... — read more 

I've been here for 25 years. When I just started I was satisfied with most things regarding work and I enjoyed my job. Over the years that changed gradually, and now I'm at the point where I hate my job and everything about it. I have no intention of... — read more 

Seems like as Encompass rolls into National General the Encompass employees will disappear with it. Anyone know more about that? Even though Allstate purchased National General, seems like they are running the show and to heck with Encompass... — read more 

Ours is claiming he has none and that the orders come from higher tiers. I don’t really believe him.

Another C suite oddity is head of HR Carrie Blair joined ALL in 2019. Looks like she was fired from Sun LIfe and it took her 1+ years to find anything. They just needed a body before they started massive layoffs and firings.

I have never experienced a company that expects the training of newly hired and/or transferred employees to be done by already overworked employees. Unbelievable. And when you need help, you’re told to consult the online database because they... — read more 

People complaining about Allstate health insurance should know that these guys have the exact same coverage as regular employees. There health insurance situation is no different and costs the same.

Why do you think that if your department is understaffed or if Allstate is hiring, there will be no layoffs? People seem to forget very quickly that everything is possible at Allstate, that layoffs don’t make any sense and that this company... — read more 

Just got the email that Gerard will be speaking as to the assessments we took, sounds lovely.

When people complain about high health insurance prices, remember that Wilson and Shapiro have the exact same plans that regular employees do, so they are in the same boat.

Customers only care about price to a point…and that point comes at the first claim moment of truth… You can be sure that they are not sticking around for poor claim service or low ball claim payments when they have a claim regardless of price…... — read more 

That's the talk going around. Multiple areas. Multiple departments. Multiple levels from grunts on up. All I have.

If you're going to complain about a benefit that has gotten worse over time, the health insurance is the worst I've ever had. I can't believe they couldn't work out a better plan given the size of the company. Exactly! Is there anyone who can... — read more 

Two more senior level attorneys are "no longer with the firm". I am the paralegal for one of them and am nervous.

How was Wilson’s reputation as a Sears executive? As the CFO of Allstate? I assume they must have been good, considering he got the CEO job??

After reading all the posts regarding the “many” layoffs that have taken place, I feel as if I have been completely sheltered from any news from within the company. Personally, I don’t know of a single resource that has been laid off. How can... — read more 

Went to a neighborhood ( Huntley, Il. ) barbecue this weekend and the conversation turned to Allstate demolishing the Home Office complex on 294 in Northbrook, then selling the prime location for development. Not a shock to hear all things considered... — read more 

The response was so worth leaving them high and dry. I am so excited to do nothing for two weeks except watch them squirm and scramble for a replacement.
