Pros

Excellent upper management, and leadership. Great ideas from above, wonderful 401K, benefits are good. Depending what area you are in there is job security.

Cons

Everything is very reactionary, there is no thought into future strategy when it comes to the staffing model. Answer for everything is, "Hey we can throw those people on the phones." as the search through personnel dwindles. In the Group division salaries are low, when I was working there people were spit out as soon as the ever changing metrics were not being made. Nothing was ever looked at more than the numbers, an employee may find ways to solve the company thousands of dollars a year, but if the employee did not make the metric goals, they would start the path of verbal warning, then written warning, then probation, then "We wish them well on their future endeavors."

Pros

Almost all the CSR jobs are remote, even training is from home. They provide good equipment for remote workers. Starting pay is better than average. Have not had mandatory overtime in a long time. Almost all coworkers are great people who support each other and are wonderful to deal with. Big backers of employment diversity and tolerance (without making a big deal about it). Have programs for retirement savings, employee discounts and work/life balance.

Cons

The job is telling people why the company left them with thousand dollar bills they thought were going to be completely covered. You have some positive customer interactions, but there are multiple cases every day where you feel your company did something they should not be allowed to, and YOU are the person explaining why. To get meaningful raises you have to get promotions. If you are in a position you like, you will not get meaningful cost of living adjustments. It is possible to get no raise or or half the rate of inflation while being told you are doing a "good job." They are really playing catch-up with their technology. The interfaces employees use to look up information are ancient and you can get used to their shortcomings, but it helps to obscure information that may later turn into claim denials. They claim to be improving this but as of 2024, slowly. Asking for time off in the call center can be tricky.
