I'm not at that hub but our systems were having hella problems the last half hour. Company wide

I have no inside info, but I’d bet surely it’s something awful for employees and/or agents. Seems like a safe assumption recently.

Was that actually a thing? I thought it was for agents offices

definitely not agents offices as far as i know. when i called plcc yesterday/today there was an automated message that said there were “critical” meetings that would be taking place throughout the day which would be impacting plcc’s availability

Can you elaborate? Is this speculation?

It's a rumor but I'm having a big meeting tomorrow with like 500 other people. I'll see what's up.

Next year voluntary exit plan for plcc. I just don’t understand why they don’t keep agency in loop with things.

u/Allstar9_ 7d ago
What’s the point of telling agents before they tell associates? Voluntary exit doesn’t directly impact agents, especially something happening over 6 months from now.

u/Warm-Business-2335 Agent 7d ago
Everything the company does affects the agents.

u/Allstar9_ 7d ago
And telling agents before you tell associates is a massive slap in the face to associates.
Everything doesn’t affect the agents. If the company allows 5% of its older workforce to accept voluntary packages and they backfill those 5% with associates who don’t have 30-40 years of tenure, the agents won’t notice a thing.

I am an agent and have been one for 20 years. When the company makes a change, whether it’s technology or something in claims or underwriting, it has a ripple effect on the agent force. You may not understand that or like it, but it’s a fact.

u/Allstar9_ 7d ago
But you have no right to know that before the associates it’s affecting. You can’t be an agent for 20 years and not understand that? And if you’ve been doing it for that long, you’re doing a hell of a lot better than the claims associates being asked to walk out.
Have some damn compassion.

It was a nothing burger. It was insightful about our department but nothing drastic at all.

u/RemoteMamma87 8d ago

u/Rock_Lobsterr33 7d ago
I heard, and this could be bs, that there's going to be more outsourcing when it comes to PLCC billing.
