Pros

I love to work from home. I enjoy my teammates and that we have a group chat to help each other through tough calls. I enjoy helping members who call in and hearing the genuine appreciation for my assistance in their voice.

Cons

Training was very scattered and all over the place. They had everyone from triage to benefits to claims to nurses all in the same training class which made it very confusing to understand what my job was when exiting training. Many of the supervisors are extremely corporate and do not care about you personally they only care about the numbers and what QA thinks about you. High stress job especially during open enrollment.

Good morning, Thank you for taking the time to provide this detailed feedback with suggestions. I am happy that your experience with your team and the work has been great. I am sorry that your experience with training was not as great as you had hoped. Health Advocate is constantly growing and as such, we are always hiring. With our demand for staffing, we can't always wait to have a full class of nurses, or benefits associates to run a solo training. The training we provide is general to start and gets more specific to your position as it progresses. I will pass your feedback on to see if there are gaps we can address to better prepare you for the floor. When it comes to promotions, our process is in depth and thorough - we have had great success with our internal growth. If you have more specific feedback, please email me directly to discuss. Thank you, Howard Mintzer, Director, HR Business Partnership

Pros

Coworkers help each other when needed

Cons

Pay is terrible for the position. The company provided half an annual raise in 2025 with the promise of the other half in 2026 to align raises with reviews, but then froze all raises. Did not get more than 1.5% raise, but upper management keeps getting promotions with bumps in pay. Metrics are the only thing cared about. Managers micromanage and provide inconsistent and conflicting advice.
