Pros

Good benefits and employee assistance programs. Salaries are competitive.

Cons

There's a lack of review of what employees go through with a high growth rate in the Illinois Auto Claims. Over 85% of the adjusters are in role less than a year and have no reliable mentor structure. Training programs are new and still being worked out. Everyone is expected to put in 10 to 12 hour days to be successful. They dangle promotions and growth opportunities to maximize performance. Most goals set are unachievable because the company is trying get back to an archaic idealized KPI that is not forward facing or account for the current environment. Almost every exit interview or survey shows that the main concern is an excessive workload.

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.
