Pros
There are many very creative and enthusiastic people working at Allstate. They generate many good ideas and make day-to-day activities interesting. Allstate is a large company and there is a large variety of activities in which you can try to get involved. Their Marketing group create many innovative ideas throughout each year and implementing some of these make regular activities very interesting.
Cons
Allstate is very bureaucratic and rigid in it’s procedures. They see the achievement of repeatable processes only through inflexible regimentation. There are no clear metrics to determine success but there is a general understanding that there are problems. High level financial evidence supports this so senior leadership is forcing improvements. Because of the lack of metrics the efforts targeted at making these improvement are often ineffective and disruptive to the employees.
