I am so sick of the stress that comes with working for this company. I know the grass is not always greener on the other side, but every day it seems like it’s just getting worse. Management just keeps asking for more and more and becoming burned out is just around the corner for me. I’m hoping, no - praying that the relief is in sight. But I highly doubt it. Never thought I’d want to look for another job but that possibility is becoming all too real.

It's easy to think of reasons not to do something, It's our nature to second guess ourselves. We don't like change.
What you will find, though, is that life without Allstate is not the end of the world. Every single person I have talked to, impacted or voluntary, that has left the company is all doing great and is so much happier and stress free.
Do not give yourself a heart attack over a job that would replace you in one heartbeat.
I’m heading for a full blown nervous breakdown. I have a constant tension headache from stress. I regularly yell at my computer. I don’t sleep well, waking up at 3 am. Sunday nights I’m so anxious. My family is starting to avoid me, even my dog, not that I blame them. I spent the majority of last year constantly stressed over whether I’m laid off or not. I wasn’t and now my computer, email, phone never stop, constant issues, constantly being blamed for everything wrong with this company, I’m a low level VA adjuster FFS. I put in well over 50 hours a week just to stay afloat. It’s never going to get better, once I’m not held captive by debt and Covid I’m done or I’ll have a heart attack by the time I’m 40 and die
I’m so tired of sitting in front of a computer 11-12 hours a day working claims inspects . I wear glasses now because my vision has worsened and trying to meet their unattainable production numbers has all of us in our unit stressed and depressed. We’ve lost 4 people in the last month that cracked under the pressure . Angry customers , agents and shops .
If you think it’s bad now, just wait. It’s going to get so much worse...
Horrible environment. All we can do is quit since we don’t have a Union to support us or get things changed. Time to go on stress leave.
Totally feel you. I’m thinking the sooner the better. 2021 not going to be a good year at this company for anyone other than the C team
