Pros

Worked on a team that has been incredibly supportive and invested in my growth and development. From day one, my colleagues have gone out of their way to make me feel welcome and valued, offering words of affirmation and encouragement whenever I need it. One of the things I appreciate most about my team is their willingness to invest in me as a person, not just an employee. They take the time to understand my interests, strengths, and career goals, and actively seek out opportunities to help me develop new skills and take on new challenges. Another great thing about working with such an awesome team is the sense of camaraderie and collaboration that we share. Everyone is always willing to lend a hand or offer support when needed, and there's a real sense of teamwork and shared purpose that makes coming to work each day a real pleasure.

Cons

The onboarding process was quite disorganized and confusing, with a lot of information and procedures left undefined or unclear. It took me some time to figure out my role and responsibilities, and I think a more structured and well-defined onboarding process would have made things a lot easier. In addition, there were some issues with the job description and expectations. Although I was excited about the role when I accepted it, I soon discovered that there were some important aspects of the job that were not fully explained or outlined. This led to some confusion and frustration on my part, and I think clearer communication and more specific expectations would have been helpful.

Pros

Pto, good company to work for career wise, good discounts on things+discount for food on site.

Cons

Overworked like crazy, I was hired a few months ago but am already looking for something else, due to the stress and constant feeling of “wow finally i think im starting to get this” all to be reminded when submitting your tasks for mentor review you either did it right or have to redo the whole entire thing from scratch that is if your mentor is even available. Depending on your mentor as well that can really damper your experience and overall understanding. Training could have been done a lot better initially with constant exposure to different task types and different material. For example Medical certifications could have been shown over and over again for us to understand if it’s complete, incomplete and what significant health condition it would be for coding. With other team members also leaving as training ended and senior team members leaving once we got assigned the writing was on the wall. I really wanted to give Unum a shot and really try to see myself here, maybe it’s just the position of leave specialist or maybe all the jobs are the same, still can’t help but wonder if another position would’ve suited me better if they allowed role transfers sooner instead of waiting a minimum full year.
