Thread regarding Allstate Corp. layoffs

100% Digital Allstate.

Once the company completes its digital transformation there will be no more phone handling of claims. The savings will be incredible as the need for human voices on the phone is no longer necessary. The digital customer experience is going to be the only way a customer can connect. Don’t believe me ? Try filing a claim over the phone with a human being. That process is on the way out. Voice to voice handling is a process that is fading away. It will be much easier for the bots and the foreign nationals to do the jobs digitally that were once done by human on shore Allstate employees via the phone or in person. What a travesty against humanity.

I don’t see how. According to the CCO meeting, it’s going to be one giant call center.

Will the bots be licensed? The biggest complaints our customers have is the lack of a field inspector. Yes, you could save money by going digital but severities will continue to rise and customers will continue to flee to carriers that offer a personal touch.
Bold strategy but the leadership and common sense decision making just doesn’t exist here to make that work.

It's already difficult filling a claim now. They don't understand English unless you get lucky and talk to someone in the US

There are many experts off shore. Don’t be naive and think just because you’re in legal you’re safe.

Perhaps that will be the case for property or auto inspections. I don’t see it happening for bodily injury claims or litigation. When someone is sued, and requests a defense, they are called. If all the facts are not properly gathered, that is Bad Faith territory. Bad faith claims cost big bucks.

This is pretty spot on. Claims may not hear much now or over the next 6-9 months but things will look way different across the entire claims enterprise in late 2023 and early 2024. It's in the plans.
