      Getting paid for doing nothing - Staff Data Scientist eHealth Employee Review

      Pros

      - Data Scientists get paid very well here. - Most of our projects are just for fun and have no direct contributions to the business. The stuff that we do (NLP, Recommendation Engine, Lead Scoring) already exist as products/services that can be offered by third party vendors. I don't even know why we need to re-invent the wheel. - It's very easy to just coast and get paid

      Cons

      - Our head of Data Science is clueless and not very articulate. I'm not even sure why he's still having a job for so long. Favoritism is very obvious in his org. Certain members in the team are getting paid almost 2x of others. - The executives here don't know what they are doing. Maybe that's why Data Science team has such an easy time here. More reasons for employees to just fake their works and coast. - While it is easy to just get paid and do nothing, the company is running off the cliff so it's about time for me to look elsewhere. Stock price is plummeting so it effectively reduces my total compensation. - CEO seems like he wants to cash out and retire. I don't feel that he cares about the company.

      Pros

      Supportive team environment, helpful training resources, flexible scheduling during peak periods, and opportunities to learn the healthcare marketplace.

      Cons

      High call volume expectations, inconsistent communication between departments, limited advancement clarity, and frequent process changes that slow workflow.

      Pros

      The Pay was somewhat alright.

      Cons

      The Place was a mess! The work was extremely stressful and daunting! everyone looses thier voice at some point from constantly talking. Each sale lasts about 1-3hours, due to rules, requirements, and mandatory verbiage. Too many grey areas, for management to single you out, and penalize you for undefined verbiage, which leads to penalties and pay deductions. Management is stealth in discrimination and abuse. Like I said, too many grey areas. So if they have something against you, too many opportunities to penalize you unjustly. I lost over $4000 from this alone. Your metrics can be whatever they want it to be. Management even said to me, I quote, "We can move numbers around here and there", during a virtual meeting.
