Imagine busting your behind for years for your job and then told you have to take an assessment that is based on a senseless questionaire and stupid puzzle? Lol like are you kidding me?? I remember one question I had to pick between was “if I find a task too hard, I would leave it for someone else Versus “Some of my colleagues would say I’m disorganized”... like WTF???? Are you kidding me??? How is this legal? LOL

Disregard my last reply, YOUNG BLOODS posts have all been removed :)
Here comes YOUNG BLOODS posting again. On second thought, maybe a couple layoffs are actually needed
decision is primarily based on past performance. Assessment is only small %
Exactly I said the same thing this assessment was put together to make u fail it.
Allstate always pushes how well they treat their employees, but they treat em like dirt. Yeah, yeah they have benefits, but most companies offer benefits. Mostly it is the senior leadership - they are a little click of their own. They promote who they want to promote, even though there is someone else who is more qualified for the position. It's a popularity contest and if the senior leaders/supervisors/tsl's, etc like you - you are good to go. Promotions are not given to those who qualify but to those who are "yes" people. Why don't they lay off the senior leadership and let their cohorts fill the positions? They won't because leadership hides stuff from the main office in IL. You can be loyal to this company and in the end it is all about the Benjamin's.
It is amazing to me that the CEO just sent notice out to employees about how profitable the third quarter was? just sayin...
it was a behavioral exam followed by a thinly veiled IQ test. this was obvious to anyone who isn't pants-on-head r—ded.
I would think disorganized would be the better answer than leaving the work for someone else
Don’t quit ..ride it out ...severance
I quit yesterday after 10 years as an auto field adjuster. Enough is enough. This place has gotten to be a horrible place to work.
While I think this entire situation is ridiculous I'm also shaking my head at how foolish everyone is being about the assessment questions. They are behavioral. If they have you "would you stab a child or feed the poor" everyone (except maybe the leadership within the company) would pick feed the poor.
For the record the right answer is that some co-workers would say you are disorganized. Leaving things for others is a deliberate decision you are making and admitting to. The other option isn't a positive but it isn't a deliberate decision on your part and it's an assessment by another party not something you are staying inherently about yourself. It's about behavior and critical thinking.
Questions may Just as well have been do you beat your spouse or would you rob a bank. That is how stupid and insulting this thing was. Looks like it was designed by 20 somethings You’re working at the mall or Burger King
What kind of question is that! Just another way for Allstate to fire good people and keep the c-ap ones that lie, cheat and steal.
I planned to just give them typical corporate yes-man answers but the “test” truly made no sense, then followed by a low grade candy crush, this company has truly gone off the rails at this point, I’ve never seen anything like it. They are destroying this company, I don’t think employee morale is ever going to recover and profits are going to tank
