Pros
In my experience, Allstate has been very supportive of employee's registering for training, and until the economy went to the toilet, attending conferences.
Cons
Extremely fractured culture, where different departments have entirely different attitudes and business norms. In the past few years, every year there is a new initiative to remake the company, only to be forgotten and then overshadowed by next year's initiative. Sometime too political, promotions based not on experience or competency, but political gamesmanship. And then they wonder why their having so many problems!
