Pros

cool virtual call center job for newbies after working this job, finally had a reason to get a therapist- who immediately picked up on the toxic work environment & recommended me to quit for my health alongside my doctor. 😃👍🏽

Cons

pay, it’s a joke. great for someone who can hold their bladder for hours. schedule adherence is huge here, so you will get docked for the slightest adjustment to your schedule if you need a bathroom break or a breather from the high volume. they treasure schedule adherence over a coworker who regularly practices work avoidance. no formal leave of absence appeals for ANY reason so they’ll left their systems not catch your paperwork from your doctor even though you called & confirmed they received what they needed- then still deny you with no support. as much as they push career advancement opportunities, they don’t tell you how hard it is to actually attain that here. employees will openly tell you that they hate customer care, the seasoned employees are trying to post out. management will still dangle promotions in your face to keep you interested. 0 work life balance, most days are blocked from requesting vacation on. you already barely get enough time off to schedule as is.

Pros

Remote work with base pay. Some PTO. Telesales with scripts and all inbound pre-made appointments.

Cons

First of all, I thankfully came from another Medicare agency where I learned the backbone of Medicare education because Alight did not educate the employees on the essentials of Medicare; so I'm glad I already had that foundation otherwise I would have spiraled right on out of that position right at the beginning. I never got paid the commission I was promised. The first phone interview stated that I would receive all commission as one lump sum by the end of March. So after working AEP (OCT through DEC) I was waiting patiently for the commission from nearly 200 enrollments I completed. In Jan, I received 50% of my expected commission and never saw the remainder 50% come through. I reached out to multiple people including my direct management with no response. This position was temporary for potential permanency, I was asked to stay on without clarity and it basically turned into customer service support (and occasional enrollments.) The customer service was extremely heavy from all of the agents who did not do a great job - a lot of unhappy customers were calling in at the end of 2025 and beginning of 2026. The amount of commission per enrollment was never given to me in writing, so I had to learn a lesson the hard way. I left in February.
