Pros

Working from home. Flexibility on hours worked. Pay was less than the industry standard but it balanced out when you factor no transportation cost, clothing and meals since you are a remote worker.

Cons

Working from home as a remote claims arbitrator seemed to be an ideal job but the work load was dependent upon cases provided to the company from insurance companies in which they have contracts. In less than a year, the workload started to trickle in and EXL was not able to maintain their remote staff. The most devistating part is there was no real notice or preparation for the layoff and the company made promises prior to hiring a group that they forecast an increase in business.

Pros

Paycheck clears, that’s about it.

Cons

Started off with supportive leadership, teamwork and opportunities to grow. At the start of this year, entire department went toxic. Leadership stopped communicating, people getting fired, threats that you would get fired, being told that they are “reducing workforce” in august, creating ridiculous metrics that were impossible to meet due to their own bad technology. Coworkers started getting mental and physical health issues trying to keep their jobs, and many are trying to leave. I have never seen such a toxic workplace in my 30 years of employment in this industry.
