Pros

Competitive compensation is the only pro I can think of.

Cons

Our direct leadership is extremely disconnected. If you are not a bobblehead while they are on the soapbox during Zoom meetings, you will be called out. Our direct manager consistently refers to management as needing to continue to "drink out of the fire hose". However, the department is simply toxic and disorganized. The work life balance is non existent. Senior leadership will preach on the importance, but direct management does not execute on their messaging. I have witnessed multiple managers talk about crying from the stress and burn out. Attempts from management to connect on a personal level are extremely rare and come off forced and disingenuous. I believe you should typically take Glassdoor reviews with a grain of salt. However, there is a reason Allstate's company and CEO approval sit at barely 50%+ approval across a large sample size of reviews.

Pros

Large Stable company, decent benefits, provide social gathering opportunities for remote employees.

Cons

Communication is not the best. from leadership down or between departments. Perception is valued higher then performance. Under stress people may turn hostile and the leadership is not equipped to address in well. In case of my manager some of the expectations were not reasonable.
