Pros

its a paycheck paid training licensing support

Cons

the trainers where atrocious you can tell they were on a power trip. They try to micromanage everything constantly reminding people that they can see their screens and sometimes when you would ask a question they would say things like weren't you listening seemed very high school. They advertise that you can make somewhere between 60 K to 100 K a year but that's just not true out of training they are going to Deprioritize you so you get less calls you prob make 40,000 your 1st year which is not enough to survive They had an amazing sells year in 2023 they turned around in 2024 and made it harder to bonus cut protected PTO days from 8 to 2. In most states they said if they could, they would cut everybody's down but state laws prevented them from doing so. The reason you see so many job listings is because they have a high turnover rate now that they are cutting cost out what seems at the employee is expense seem like there are congratulating NO ONE but these stockholders for the amazing job sales agents did in 2023 and picked the lowest benefit package possible for 2024. what a clown show

Pros

Work from home There are some school programs paid at 100%

Cons

- I haven't been micromanage this bad since working in a call center!!! - the tools you use to do your job feels like micromanagement. Its very slow moving as well. Every thing takes so long to load while you're trying to speed through your work. - you will receive an email about every single little thing you did wrong - you will not receive praise for anything - you will need to protect yourself by maintaining documentation of what was asked of you, because it will be later explained that it doesn't matter what was said, you should have researched it yourself (even when you're brand new). - when they are wronf about a reprimand they just gave you, don't expect a reply or an apology - they will make sudden changes that severely impacts your job at a moments notice and wonder why you are behind - I was advised a manageable workload is 20-30 claims. My whole team had 90+ claims. - The turn over rate is exceptionally high. Over the course of a year I started 7 people quit within. 3 additional people were fired. - you're going to beg for help and they aren't going to help you, and they are going to tell you that YOU are the problem. - currently, all the hires are being shielded from the hot mess. They are trying to change things by pushing all the people who suffered through the mess they created to put a positive spin on the job and I guess preserve moral. - the job itself wouldnt be difficult (because the work is relatively easy), but its VERY disorganized. You will feel like you work in a call center, but this time, you have to return voicemails, emails and text messages. - 2nd worse job experience in my entire life - AND THE PAY IS BELOW INDUSTTY STANDARDS!!! There are no bonuses.
