Pros

Great Benefits, tuition reimbursement, internet and cellphone covered, great work life balance except during AEP (October 15th-December 7th), work from home. Great job if you have enough patience to deal with the 65+ crowd all day. Holiday's and paid time off are amazing

Cons

Company continuously lies, went from 1 Saturday per quarter to 1 about every month. They state if you are a top performer you can make $125K+ haven't seen that anywhere. Commission structure constantly changes and you make less during harder times of selling. Claim you are here to help consumers, but want you to change peoples plans based off of one or two reasons for calling in. The marketing for medicare in general is atrocious especially the giveback and flex card benefits. Every supervisor you ask a question too has a different answer. Upper management is horrible at communication. Unclear instructions all over the place. Most of the top sellers aren't here for too long. They make compliance a top priority, but do 0 to educate you on it during training. Instead they tell you how amazing the calls and consumers are.

Pros

Excellent Leadership and Team: My manager was incredibly supportive, motivating, and patient. He took the time to coach me even when I struggled with my numbers. Great Work Culture: The internal team environment was fun, collaborative, and highly engaging. Strong Incentives: The company offers a great points-based reward system that allows you to earn cool items based on performance. Positive Separation: Management gave me every opportunity to succeed, and I was able to leave on excellent terms with the team. Also the traing was fun and they invest in you and really give people a chance to make it

Cons

Cons Challenging Customer Base: Dealing with a specific client demographics (including high-stress compliance calls) Highly Difficult Customer Base: Dealing with ( VERY SPECIFIC) class of customer demographic was incredibly challenging. Callers were frequently impatient, demanding, and abusive, which took a major toll on morale. The callers were frequently impatient, demanding, and ungrateful. Rigid Compliance Metrics: The quality assurance guidelines are overly strict. If a rushed customer makes you miss a single word during a disclosure, you are marked down or forced to restart the script from the beginning, And its pages of word for word questions creating immense emotional stress if you miss a single word like "and or will or may"it makes it harder when someones telling you hurry common and hufing and puffing really inapropriate and having to start over ask the same questions making the customer more impatient and intense pressure on you as angent...after this experience im so grateful when i talk to a nice stranger no matter where it is over the phone or in person bc these customer really did a number on my emotions for months i know not everyone can be so entitled in this world so i left not bc the company but becaus the customers and ive worked in high stressful envirmonets but never delt with this specific group of people. .Lead Quality: Many of the leads felt like random cold calls rather than qualified prospects, making it much harder to hit sales targets.

Pros

eHealth RevOps offers a fast-paced environment with strong exposure to healthcare operations, commissions, and cross-functional collaboration. The work is meaningful and provides opportunities to build analytical, problem-solving, and process improvement skills. Teams are generally supportive, and there are opportunities to learn from peers with deep industry knowledge. The role provides hands-on experience with complex data, audits, and reconciliation processes, which is valuable for strengthening both operational and financial skill sets.

Cons

Leadership is a significant challenge. The Senior Director’s approach tends to be highly hands-on, which can limit autonomy and make it difficult for employees to feel fully trusted or supported in their roles. The environment can feel high-pressure rather than growth-oriented. At the Senior Manager level, there are concerns around consistency, professionalism, and fairness. Communication style can come across as overly direct or discouraging at times, and there are perceptions of favoritism that impact team morale and overall engagement. There are also gaps in leadership presence and support. 1:1 meetings are frequently canceled, and team members often need to rely on other leaders for guidance. While tracking and reporting are maintained, there is limited hands-on support, coaching, and clear direction for the team. Training is another challenge. Onboarding often relies on current employees who are expected to maintain their full workload, creating a high-pressure environment with little room for error. This makes it difficult for new hires to ramp up effectively and confidently. Overall, these factors can make it challenging for employees to feel supported, develop professionally, and operate with clarity and confidence.
