Pros

Great PTO, started with 23 PTO days Lots of opportunity to advance internally Health insurance, matched 401k, tuition reimbursement

Cons

Lots of layoffs every year, jobs have been outsourced to India "Teams" become "cliques" There is an unspoken hierarchy when it comes to processors vs. adjusters. Processors are treated as though they're insufficient and provide little value to the company. The company has switched to production based metrics instead of customer centric. You're asked to "do as many tasks as possible" without a clear and concise goal. Although you're not given a definitive goal, you're penalized if it's considered to low by management. Lunch breaks were cut from an hour to 30 minutes. You're monitored every time you leave your desk and timed on how long it takes you to complete a task. It began to feel like a sweat shop.

Pros

Great base pay, benefits, 401K match, and standard corporate perks. Plenty of networking opportunities all across the country, the ability to support local communities, and a commission structure with good intentions and potential

Cons

As a company, Allstate lacks awareness of their role within the industry and within the country, fully acknowledging that their rates are NEVER the best (not sometimes, NEVER). At a time when everyone is conscious of their spending, selling a more expensive (and oftentimes identical) product not only feels wrong - it's unsustainable. There is a severe lack of program direction, poor understanding of the different states' geography and demographics, and complete void of accountability or clarity. An entire product launch was delayed by a month on the day it was supposed to launch, with an explanation never fully arriving and acknowledgment finally trickling down several days later. Of course, this leads to an overuse of corporate speak excuses in an endless cycle of "circle backs" because nobody ever knows what is actually happening or WHY. On top of all that, the technology is laughably outdated, with monitors that feature known defects and an "in-house approach" to all of their software that doesn't even feature a modern CRM. Like the hardware, known system-wide bugs were rampant within these Allstate branded systems, leading to embarrassing conversations with prospects and partners. MS Teams and Outlook will go off late into the night, well beyond normal business hours, all under the excuse of differing time zones and "sharing successes."
