Coding our way to business decisions

Learn how Patrick works with data to make an impact.

Allstate is a data-rich source, being an 86 year-old company. We mine through that data to make strategic decisions that will help all areas of the company. To most effectively collect, interpret and utilize this data, it is up to people like Patrick, a Data Analytics Engineer. He explores new technologies and writes code in order to get the most out of the data. “As an engineer at Allstate, it’s nice to know that you are making a direct impact within the business that you’re supporting,” says Patrick. The results that come from data are factual, not guesstimates, and the impact it has for the business is critical. It can impact many parts of our business, such as HR, Product & Pricing, and Claims, just to name a few.

Patrick enjoys his team’s hands-off management style. They are allowed to accomplish tasks using their preferred work style and programming language.

“I’m excited about Allstate’s vision to make the company the place to work for analytics and predictive modeling.” – Patrick, Data Analytics Engineer

Continuously improving

Learn how Donna sustains change.

Continuous Improvement (CI) is a management system that aims to make changes and improvements so that employees who are on the front line in dealing with customers or agency owners feel empowered to make decisions and improve the business. Change agents physically go to each office to assess the health of that particular location and make changes based on need.

But what happens after the CI assessment rolls through an office? That is where the sustainability coach, like Donna, comes in to help and encourage them to be successful, by letting them know where they are at and where they need to be.

“We’ve got great leaders here at Allstate, and CI helps them go even further. Instead of putting a Band-Aid on a problem or rushing into a solution, we help them try to get to the root cause. It’s natural for people to think they know the answer to a problem, only to find themselves faced with a similar issue six months later. CI says, ‘let’s take a minute and get to the root cause, because we’re not solving the right thing,’” -Donna, Sustainability Coach

Continuous improvement is an ongoing strategy to ensure Allstate is delivering the best service. Learn how you can be a part of a team that constantly uses their problem solving skills.
