Pros

Money. It's a job. There is good training and also an opportunity of advancement. There is a company gainshare ( a small bonus each year), but it depends on how the company is doing. With the current economy, I expect that the gainshare is going out the window.

Cons

In order to advance or even keep your job, it is expected that you don't take time off and that you put in 50-60 hours per work. Of course you are exempt, so you are not getting paid for that time. You will also be micro-managed to the extreme. They will find a number to measure every little thing you do and you have very little room to think for yourself.

Pros

Work from home and flexible scheduling, can slide schedule up to two hours to accommodate appointments, etc.

Cons

Unrealistic claim volume, it ramps up slowly when you're in training and then you start getting so many claims you don't know what to do with them. Customer service is constantly preached, but it's not possible to return voicemails, texts and emails timely while managing 20 claims a day. They keep increasing volume, and you have to spend a minimum of 5 hours a week taking live calls, during which you cannot make any calls out on your own claims, and are required to work each claim you take a call on to it's fullest point, even when they are brand new and unassigned, taking you away from taking action on your own claims that could prevent calls. They are incorporating AI and digital tools that were intended to simplify the process and reduce phone time, but customers are upset and refuse to participate, which means claims are delayed awaiting digital statements, and then need more phone calls anyway. The expectations are outrageous.
