Pros

None. Please do not work here if you value your career.

Cons

Training- Absolutely poor training! What they taught in 2-3 months of training was nothing like what we actually had to do on the job! Important information was missed time and again that was needed to perform our jobs properly and by the time we were out of training and handling live claims, it was too late. Work/Life Balance- Let’s just say that I will not wish this job on my worst enemy! Expectations are completely unrealistic when it comes to handling and closing claims. They expect all of the employees to work more than their shift to finish the job and many employees, including me, miss their lunch and breaks on a daily basis in order to keep up. Manager- My immediate manager was an absolute failure! She has no knowledge as to how the entire property claims process works from beginning to end and therefore I couldn’t even ask her for any help/questions! Combine that with already poor training, it made my decision to leave pretty easy. One more specific incident that pushed me even harder to leave was when my manager made a comment about how I pronounce the word “plumber” in an official meeting. I am an immigrant so of course, I have a slight accent. For her to make an ignorant and borderline racist comment on how I pronounce certain words in meetings that is actually meant for constructive criticism and open discussions was completely unacceptable.

Pros

1. Great health insurance and PTO 2. I personally have a great direct manager 3. Flexible daily schedule- remote work so can structure your day as you please 4. Build up airfare/hotel/rental car points 5. Training months are helpful

Cons

1. Schedule is awful. Expected to work 10 days in a row, 7am to 7pm. 2. additional pay for closing claims is difficult to get. Is presented as an easy accomplishment but is definitely not. 3. Hard to build networks/connections. All work is remote and you are working independently 95% of the time 4. Job is presented as travel heavy- unless you live in the middle of nowhere, travel is infrequent. If you live in Chicago, Baltimore, or Dallas, you will almost never travel. 5. You are expected to work almost all major holidays. Trainers will be shady about it when you ask- they don't work holidays so they don't care about you. 6. Base pay is far too low (personally). For the schedule we work, everyone should be making much than they do. On paper, $55k/yr was a good offer, but doing the math per hour, I make minimum wage. 7. Financial team are all extremely rude when reviewing expense reports. 8. There is additional weekend pay that is not automatically given to you- you have to submit work logs for days you're required to work. Allstate loves to make you beg for the money that you are contractually owed.
