The Allstate concept is a great one.
The EA's are the backbone of the organization. Every Allstate office that you see on the street corner has at their disposal an EFS and an EBS. This is their 3-legged stool concept.
You will have two legs of the stool from which to draw business. And as you have stated, the EFS's are doing very well. I would not hesitate for one minute to go with Allstate. On your side of the fence you will find they are a great company to be affilliated with. Just my .02 cents
I responded to an Allstate recruiters. I was non committal, but they were persistent and offered me the opportunity to audit their training class in Chicago. I accepted. Allstate asked me to complete pre-employment paperwork. I did not complete all of it - the paperwork was ready for my signature. For example I did not sign their EFS contract; I did not sign their authorization to contact my employer. The thought process was if I accepted an offer we would have most paperwork out of the way. I would not commit to an EFS position until EA relationships were established to my satisfaction and various other concerns. The understanding was clear – I was checking Allstate out, they were checking me out. Allstate and I were in agreement to keep my file on hold, but revisit a month later.
Allstate went ahead and processed my file including the unsigned documents. Allstate contacted my employer with an unsigned authorization form without permission and I was terminated. (I was unaware of said contact and had to be escorted out of the building)
Allstate did not have a need for an EFS position. Their were none, zero, EA relationships save one non-growth – non-licensed EA w/500 households book within 50 miles. After an Allstate manager acknowledged the errors; Allstate simply did not give a care. It is my opinion Allstate acted wrongfully and I was financially and emotional damaged. In my opinion the least of these wrongful actions are misrepresentation, negligence, and interference with a business relationship. I did not sign the EFS contract because they contain prior contract language which in effect negates previous oral and written statements made by Allstate or their representatives.
I am well within the statute of limitations - still looking.
