Pros

It’s a job that pays money and provides decent PTO

Cons

They gave one salary and position in the offer letter and then called both a typo once I took the job. Wanted me to sign a new offer letter with a lower salary and position or they were gonna fire me. They don’t treat their employees like people. No one in management knows anything and doesn’t know who would know anything. They don’t care about you at all, just the numbers they can show to their bosses. Everyone is pretty nasty and rude. Like, everyone. Don’t ask questions if you want an answer. Only ask questions if you want their original statement repeated with emphasis and no clarification. Lots of expectations of employees (metrics, etc.) but zero standards for themselves. Don’t send an email if you want a response. Send at least three emails if you want an answer for literally anything, including one where you resend your original email and another where you CC their boss. Don’t expect to advance unless you rely heavily on nepotism. Expect to know everything you’re doing wrong but not what you’re doing right. Their systems and processes are outdated. Expect to be trained based on what you did wrong and not initial training.

Pros

During training, everybody is friendly. Believe it or not, there are opportunities for career advancement outside of PCA. They are good at hiring within. Health benefits are exceptional. Now have the option to work from home. 401K

Cons

They only care about production. Customers are generally nasty. Typically, they are called thru a robocall and then minute that a PCA receives the call, the first words out of the patients' mouth is, "You called me". There are times when a issue is resolved and the customer will receive another call. This is an efficiency issue. If you are an empath, the nasty customers will TEAR you apart. Supervisors can be friendly but they only there to hawk you and make sure that you are not in aftercall. Fellow peers are condescending in nature. Some are quick to make assumptions before they gather the evidence. Working in a high call volume environment, you will quickly learn that there are peers that you prefer to speak with over others. When you talk to the good peers, they are good and helpful. The worse of the worse act as if you are being an inconvenience to them. They can be lazy and combative. The majority of pharmacists act like speaking to a patient care advocate is beneath them. System issues can result in ruining the work experience. High call volumes can be stressful, especially when patient care advocates are asked to keep up with all of their emails as well as assist fellow peers who may seek assistance when they have an issue or do not understand a concept. Pay is relatively low when compared to competitors. Raise is more like a cost of living adjustment. No raise was given in 2021, just a meager bonus for $600. The other incentives that they provide are conditional and certain metrics have to be met. More money comes in the form of overtime, where they are quick to offer when it is available. Team leaders will drop what they are doing to ensure that overtime needs are met. Also in 2021, Cigna started to implement mandatory overtime.
