Pros

The training is great. You learn a lot about claims handling in a very short time. Most middle management is approachable. Lots of PTO days. Co-workers are helpful. Benefits are decent. Pension and 401k.

Cons

Upper management is rarely around and when they are they don't want the truth about what is going on in the units. They keep bad managers on at the expense of the employees. Morale is low and people don't complain becuase there is a sense you will be "blackballed." There are a lot of people there 20+ years so you will not get vacation time when you want it. You will have to work weekends. The claim volume is crazy. They care more about customer service scores and contact numbers than claim file quality. If you have an option other than Allstate take it.

Pros

Telecommute options are very open and allowed by management. Acturial Fellows support is companywide, but the CPCU not so much

Cons

Recent outside managers being hired do not have the people skills nor do they value the Allstate culture. However, they are knowledgeable in the areas they were hired for so it makes business sense
