Pros
Weekends and Holidays Off, Casual Dress Code, Not Much Else
Cons
Multiple starting with highly Insane Micromanagement. Setting up call standards and call metrics that are not at all realistic considering the nature of the calls you have to take. Workers often disrespected my management, constantly threatened with PIPs, Terminations, that you can replaced by a temp or someone walking down the street. One manager in particular (to give an example) is a manipulative sociopath who constantly berates you, sometimes in front of other employees are even the entire call center floor. Her Manager is just a stooge who enables her. CEO clearly takes care of his own which includes maybe less than five percent of all employees (you do get an end of year bonus, but that's generally something the company can write off). When speaking at meetings he does not even talk to us as much as he talks at you. You share a floor with people who earn double what you make or more and none of them treat you with any level respect or dignity. It's sad really. On top of all that if you Google this company's name and add the world "Lawsuits" after the same watch the pages fill up. This company has been a plaintiff in multiple suits for not paying out or denying claims to "Members" or practitioners. Check their BBB page too, somehow they have a B+ rating when every single review is negative (How that have a B+ Rating is beyond me). Why DA's in many states are not looking into ASH's (in some cases) unethical and highly questionable business practices is beyond me and most others. Admittedly when I got to the company I had already heard a number of horror stories about ASH but chose to look past them and see for myself. After 4 years I can tell you unequivocally that every single horror story about this company is not only true but verifiable by more than a few people who have gone thru here or are still here. Advancement is non-existent unless you either get in well with the select few "right people" or know the CEO or at least VP. Also the health coaches are grossly underpaid, overworked and usually leave within a year or two anyways. If you are thinking of a career at ASH just stop now. Don't bother. Find another company to apply to instead (unless you are that desperate of a job (and I mean really desperate). You can do better that this company. If you get an offer from ASH and get another from another company, ASH is the throw away. The years I spent here I can never get back. I've moved on since I left. But do yourself a favor, simply stay away from ASH.
