Pros

Gain share bonuses, ability to shift/alter your schedule the same day, you have a lot of control over your scheduling, fun environment, tolerant culture, lots of events for the employees, monetary bonuses for your performance

Cons

You will not advance far without having your degree, hours/shifts offered are limited...also company is moving towards a performance based schedule bid system, must work mandatory 8 holiday hours per year, limited employment options without a degree regardless of your past work experience, customer service position is also "soft sales" meaning you are required to make certain offers to the customer (part of your metrics)

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.
