Pros
Great coworkers. Good work-life balance. Opportunities to pursue your own ideas.
Cons
Too much middle-management (cliche thing to say, but here's it very true). Lots of bureaucracy with trying to obtain data. Top management doesn't seem to understand or appreciate what the data science department does. Insurance industry moving towards technology/apps and Allstate is behind on it. Lots of reorganizations in the department (no layoffs, just employees being moved around like chess pieces). Very high turnover since every other company can pay much better. Crucial senior positions are too hard to fill. These empty positions disrupt everyone since the groups are interdependent.
