Thread regarding Allstate Corp. layoffs

Life long work, down to a puzzle

I've refrained from commenting on this thread, I did not want to feed into the negativity. I am just voicing my overall stress level right now. As weird as it sounds, I have wanted to work for an insurance company since I was 16. Worked my whole life moving up the chains and busting my a– to get noticed. Once I was noticed, I decided to take a 15,000 to 20,000 a year pay cut to realize that dream with Allstate. I continued to drive for excellence everyday I worked. I wanted to move up and not settle for the role I am ever in. I wanted use my skills to help improve the company and customers. I took so much pride wearing the Allstate logo.. It's not just a job to me. My life's long work now comes down to me taking a puzzle...

Is the puzzle just moving rectangles (motion) to move the dots together or is it the switch, grid and digit also?

I bombed the puzzle.. I skipped a ton and think I only got three.. how does this relate to our job skills? How big a part of the assessment is this? I’m feeling like I’m going to puke now

the assessment was an obvious behavioral exam and IQ test. so much for wanting diversity in the workforce.

You play a logic puzzle like Tetris and it’s supposed to measure your personality apparently. I think the decisions on who and where to cut have been made already and everything from the arb agreement to the assessment is to protect the company legally.

It's ironic that Allstate claims to be committed to diversity yet we're subjected to behavioral testing to highlight their ideal candidates.
Policy before People.
