Pros

To be honest the only pro was that you got stock options below market….

Cons

Underpaid long working hours. Managers who don’t know what they’re doing. Upper management only caring about the companies bottom dollar. Raises oh wait that’s a joke bonuses they’re like a slap in the face. You work 50+ hours a week (and get reprimanded because you had to get overtime because the backlog is bad) and they don’t even compensate you properly. You are treated like you don’t matter. I know work isn’t supposed to be the best thing ever but you need to be able to enjoy your time while there and not feel like you’re gonna get written up or fired every time you say what’s on your mind and how things can improve it’s very sad you used to be a beautiful company And now it’s turned into the laughing joke of leave management. Trust me look elsewhere. The pay is better benefits are better. Life is better.

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.
