Pros

Some roles are allowed to work at home.

Cons

Allstate laid off thousands of employees in a very ugly way in the middle of a global pandemic. I can't even begin to delve into the scope in which this company has literally crushed families, all in hopes that their Transformative Growth Plan (and the acquisiton that went along with it) would get them where they need to be to stay relevant. It won't. The employees remaining (some hired back after being laid off... but at LOWER pay bands!) are experiencing extremely strained workloads, huge paycuts, and the constant threat of new layoffs... even though they are hiring like crazy? Doesn't make sense. I'll never forget that during a Town Hall, called for upper management to 'transparently' discuss the transformative growth plan (aka layoffs) with the rest of us minions on the chopping block, they played the song "CELEBRATE GOOD TIMES" in the waiting room leading up to the meeting. Talk about being out of touch! This company is unstable and toxic, stay away if you value yourself as a human being. One last thing... the benefits are a joke - a terrible, expensive joke.

Cons

- I haven't been micromanage this bad since working in a call center!!! - the tools you use to do your job feels like micromanagement. Its very slow moving as well. Every thing takes so long to load while you're trying to speed through your work. - you will receive an email about every single little thing you did wrong - you will not receive praise for anything - you will need to protect yourself by maintaining documentation of what was asked of you, because it will be later explained that it doesn't matter what was said, you should have researched it yourself (even when you're brand new). - when they are wronf about a reprimand they just gave you, don't expect a reply or an apology - they will make sudden changes that severely impacts your job at a moments notice and wonder why you are behind - I was advised a manageable workload is 20-30 claims. My whole team had 90+ claims. - The turn over rate is exceptionally high. Over the course of a year I started 7 people quit within. 3 additional people were fired. - you're going to beg for help and they aren't going to help you, and they are going to tell you that YOU are the problem. - currently, all the hires are being shielded from the hot mess. They are trying to change things by pushing all the people who suffered through the mess they created to put a positive spin on the job and I guess preserve moral. - the job itself wouldnt be difficult (because the work is relatively easy), but its VERY disorganized. You will feel like you work in a call center, but this time, you have to return voicemails, emails and text messages. - 2nd worse job experience in my entire life - AND THE PAY IS BELOW INDUSTTY STANDARDS!!! There are no bonuses.
