Thread regarding Allstate Corp. layoffs

Allstate, the Blockbuster of insurance

Allstate has regularly mentioned wanting to be like Netflix, not Blockbuster. Everything they seem to do seems in indicate otherwise.

They copy other insurance companies business strategies ie turo, uber, rideshare, etc.

They hire in upper management from other lousy companies to implement the same things those companies do (Shapiro and other upper management) just so they can implement things other companies are already doing and layoff people like other companies.

Anyone else feel like they work at Blockbuster/Sears?

@1peq+161yJxON So let’s double regions up. Make them 28 regions. That will be a LOT more efficient.

Really, do you people fall down a lot?

Mega zones and mega centers may be less costly than 14 regions on the surface, but they are not necessarily more efficient or more effective. Allstate wants to be a GEICO where there are faceless anonymous drones handling the work for the customer.

How about the business class where you go on CNBC & say it's corporate America job to create good paying jobs for America then a few months later, lay off people in a Pandemic? Did they teach that in school?

So going from an unbelievably inefficient 14 region model to 4 is a sound business decision. The waste with 14 different models and the like is staggering.

Does it s— that people are going to lose their jobs? Absolutely...but NOT doing something is going to continue to see Allstate fall.

I can tell very few of you actually took any business classes. This isn’t that hard to understand.
