    management treats you like you are a nobody

    May 16, 2023 - PCT Patient Care Tech in Tempe, AZ

    Business Outlook

    Pros

    i still work from home.

    Cons

    management only promotes you if you kiss up to them. they do not care about how hard you work, that you support your peers, get good reviews from patients. they will still give you a terrible review. just so they can justify giving only a. 1.5% raise for the year. it doesnt even keep up with inflation...let alone the value i bring to the organization i bring to the company for working there for over 12 years. i have the knowledge of 4+ departments that i use in my daily job and i get paid only $2 more per hour than new-hires.

    Old School - Favor Employees who have been there for 20+ Years in Pay and Work Culture

    May 10, 2023 - Clinical Account Executive in San Diego, CA
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    PBM industry is very profitable and safe industry to be in. In Account Management, you have a team you work with so you can learn from others and they will help you with your accounts. Most of the account teams consist of folks who have been there a very long time, so they are knowledgable of the industry.

    Cons

    Very old school and old technology used. Lenovo laptops. Not very willing to change or try new things. Top heavy and favor the employees who have been there forever. Bureaucracy for the most part. It all depends what team you are on and what manager you have of course. They underpay folks who are new and overpay folks who have been there forever and are deadweight.

    Decent starting pay

    Feb 24, 2023 - Prescription Benefit Specialist in Houston, TX
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Decent priced Cigna insurance. Room for growth. Monthly bonuses based off metrics. Bonus structure based off your effort. Paid (most) holidays off. Nice superiors.

    Cons

    No matter how great your “conversion” rate is, your Quality must be great or else you get no bonus. Some SMEs provide inaccurate info. Training classes don’t offer extra pay. No shift differential pay. No extra pay for speaking another language. Metrics include hold time while waiting for another dept (which can take a really long time).

    Very Stressful & Micromanaged

    Mar 19, 2023 - Customer Service Representative in Columbus, OH
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    I learned some new skills and met new people.

    Cons

    The call center is very fast paced, CSR's take over 100 calls per day. Members can be rather rude and insensitive, screaming and cussing about issues the CSR's have no control over and had no hand in. Supervisors change constantly. The turn over rate is high. Metrics have to be met. You are micromanaged. The pay is low in comparison to the companies expectations. You can not recommend that an angry member speak with a supervisor so you sit and listen to them talk down to you and degrade you. Not worth the stress and anxiety!
