Pros

Generous pto Healthcare options are affordable Discounts on current insurance through progressive Profit-sharing Ability to work fully remote No weekends Able to move to a new role after 6 months

Cons

Salaried professionals will often be asked-aka guilted-into taking on additional work that isn’t necessarily a part of their job description. For example, handling escalated claims where a client is requesting a manager/supervisor, and said manager has you follow up with the escalation request even though you aren’t in a leadership role or receiving a manager’s salary. Burnout is extremely common in this industry due to the standards and expectations they want you to meet for claims handling.

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.
