Pros

From the first day you will feel welcomed, supported and heard. They provide clear career paths and easily attainable bonus oppurtunities. Supervisors are always checking in and encouraging to explore new upward moving career oppurtunities and even spend time one on one helping you to prepare to kill your interviews when the time comes. I can not say enough about the culture of this company. They truly want each employee to not only grow but they actively nurture your growth and provide any and all resources you might need to make sure you succeed. Also the benefits are in my opinion some of the best i've seen or heard of in my career. This company truly is a unicorn in my humble opinion.

Cons

In my previous time working in the contact center there is a small con if you could even call it that. The contact center especially intake and csr positions have quarterly scheduling that is ranked on metrics. so the hours for inbound calls are 8a-8p est and to fairly staff those calls they ask quarterly for your schedule preferences and then once metrics are measured and compared to your peers they start at the top and work down to accomodate scheduling . so you could be working 8-4 this schedule and if your metrics dropped the next schedule may have you working 1030-630 or 1130-8 for example. now I personally preferr 4 9hr days and a 4 hr day but again depending on your metrics you may or may not get your preferences.

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.
