Pros

HealthSherpa has the best Senior Leadership I've seen of all the companies I've worked for. The founders are very transparent and communicate the company's status and long and short-term plans. They have a great People Ops team that actually values Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. While they don't always get things right, the company, as a whole, does try to learn from its mistakes.

Cons

While Senior Leadership is stellar, middle management tends to be a crap shoot. Like many companies, sometimes high-performing ICs are promoted to management but have absolutely no management experience or skills. This can lead to some teams having a really toxic atmosphere, even when the rest of the organization has a great culture. The old addage is true: one bad apple really can spoil a whole barrel.

Pros

The best training sessions I've ever had for a company. The trainer is so knowledgeable, kind, fun and made training wholesome. Once we got to the flow it was a breeze, there was a lot of help. Little less micromanaging and metrics I must say

Cons

Most CSR roles, start from Seasonal with limited opportunities for full time long-term, but you can always rehire.

Pros

Nice people and not heavy work load. Health insurance is completely paid by company.

Cons

Dealing with false advertising Medicare calls. You get some Legit calls that actually need and want help but more are becoming bait and switch. Started out decent but becoming more like other brokers with same food card and money back tactics. No room for growth on Medicare side.
