Pros

Great people. Okay salary. Work from home access.

Cons

Too many goals and expectations that are not achievable. Health benefits stink. Minimal bonus and profit sharing compared to other companies. Old uncomfortable chairs. They don’t have a filtered water fountain in the break room they expect you to drink toxic tap water. The systems are from the 70’s or 80’s and makes it so difficult to be efficient. No calibration amongst management, the rules change constantly depending on who gives you instructions. Too many meetings taking up a lot of time for no reason. They display your results on a huge whiteboard for everyone to see which is belittling. Understaffed, every employee is overworked and expected to work a new claim the same day even if you get 5 while completing a laundry list of things to do on every new claim. You will have to take recorded statements from every single person. Time consuming and useless. Micromanagement at it’s finest.

Pros

Great work life balance, Manageable pending, Great benefits, Generous PTO, The interview process was efficient and straightforward, and the recruiter was extremely helpful, maintaining clear communication with me every step of the way. This company is very thoughtful in its approach to onboarding, taking the time to ensure employees are set up to succeed rather than being overwhelmed with an excessive workload. I truly feel valued here and don’t feel like just a number.

Cons

I can not list any cons.
