Pros

Pay is decent. They offer some pretty cool schedule flexibility options. The training is paid and actually useful. You will meet some really cool people working the

Cons

Unsafe work environment. The open door and non-retaliation policies are pure fiction. Every single person I met there was very kind until we got a new supervisor. He was very abusive and multiple people quit or demanded transfers. I was subject to near constant bullying by this individual and whenI went to HR, the kindness from the rest of the management staff ceased. They began refusing to pay me for hours worked, would hold team meetings without informing me, even got caught outright falsifying details about my calls.....TWICE! If you’re physically or otherwise threatened by a superior, only report it if you are fine with being harassed by the rest of the management staff. Also, it smelled bad and there are wasps swarming every outside corridor.

Pros

Work from home and flexible scheduling, can slide schedule up to two hours to accommodate appointments, etc.

Cons

Unrealistic claim volume, it ramps up slowly when you're in training and then you start getting so many claims you don't know what to do with them. Customer service is constantly preached, but it's not possible to return voicemails, texts and emails timely while managing 20 claims a day. They keep increasing volume, and you have to spend a minimum of 5 hours a week taking live calls, during which you cannot make any calls out on your own claims, and are required to work each claim you take a call on to it's fullest point, even when they are brand new and unassigned, taking you away from taking action on your own claims that could prevent calls. They are incorporating AI and digital tools that were intended to simplify the process and reduce phone time, but customers are upset and refuse to participate, which means claims are delayed awaiting digital statements, and then need more phone calls anyway. The expectations are outrageous.
