Pros
The office community was great and friendly, but that's about it.
Cons
Very low morale. Cost cutting is their only concern. Laying off people and making the remaining employees doing all the work, increasing workload for everyone is their goal. I repeatedly worked on side projects and worked overtime and got no reward. I continuously requested other positions which I was better suited for but was told to "apply on the website" by management and got no help because they wanted me where I was, not where I would be able to excel. No pay upside, even after 3 years working there, I was the top performer all 3 years and was still given no promotion or big raise. Politics is everything at Allstate, you have to be connected to move up. I saw terrible performers move up for no reason only because they were connected, and awesome performers go nowhere because they were not connected to management. All 3 years I was there, experienced, tenured employees were laid off and forced out because they made too much, and replaced by inexperienced people fresh out of college because the company could pay them nothing. The people now handling Allstate claims don't have any experience, because all the experienced employees were all laid off to save money. Don't buy Allstate insurance!
