The voice of the customer

Allstate used to advertise the quality of claim service in all advertising.At one time it was “top tier.” It was a source of pride. It is not coincidence that none of the new commercials mention “claim service.” The current state of Allstate claim... — read more

New normal?

More work for the same money is by design and is now expected of you and is your new norm. You have been devalued by design. And as tired as you are of working long hours they don’t care and this is again expected of you and this friend is your **new... — read more

The fact is, there is dead weight at Allstate

The only problem is they're never the ones who get the boot once it's time for layoffs. Imagine how great this place could be if for once they decided not to cut people based on how much they make but based on how much they contribute to the company?... — read more

The firings are still taking place?

Didn't we have a round of mass firings in June? I thought they were done with that but now I see there are still firings going on. Is what I've been reading a solitary case or are they still systematically reducing numbers using firings for even the... — read more

For those that survived the layoffs we are the biggest losers. We work mandatory Saturday rotations and deal with screaming customers, agents and shops wondering why cars haven’t been inspected in over 2-3 weeks . Then also, Rentals aren’t not... — read more

Sacrificed a lot for Allstate

As an exempt employee I love my coworkers and sacrificed a lot for Allstate, often working overtime for free to fix problems. But that stops now. My work effort drops 50% and I don't GAF anymore. They keep telling us "they need to cut costs" but on... — read more

This is the deal

Seems like Allstate is getting rid of any area/division that is not profitable enough. I predict they'll only want to be an auto and home insurance company. Glen and Tom and all of the other a-holes are just waiting to get bought out. Do what's... — read more

This is Transformative Growth

None of us are valued whether laid off or a current employee. They haven't valued employees for a number of years now. And the fact the positions eliminated are re-posted at lower pay bands shows they don't even value the work itself like they... — read more

Recovering from the stress

You know what's the worst?

To anyone who works in ALR

Remember before you get laid off that you can get up to five occurrences before you face any consequences from Allstate. Eat your currents can be used up to 5 days. Remember to use these before you leave Allstate!!!

Would you take a pay cut to leave this place?

I haven't been happy here for a while. I was offered a job recently but it comes with a 30 percent pay cut, which is not insignificant. I've been here long enough that a 30 percent less money than I make now will not hurt me too much in the long run... — read more 

Conditions sure improving

Not. Looks like the non employees pushing people to "protest" really did a number on some of you. Zero impact, probably because the people who didn't work don't do anything anyway. Now the few who have legit gripes and bought in to it, are not... — read more
