Pros

The pay is decent when you first start, and the benefits are standard. Working from home can be a plus if you're lucky enough to be left alone. Some coworkers are great, and you can bond over shared frustrations.

Cons

This place is a nightmare... management can't communicate, and they only blame reps and leadership when they fail because of it. They promised mandatory OT during peak days but only took volunteers while the call floor was in chaos. Those volunteers, as they should have all ran for the hills. They keep team leads doing everything calls, emails, tickets while leaving us CSRs to fend for ourselves without support. Just "resources" that are wrong half the time. Their layoffs were purely to save money, while keeping reps who've failed scores and dodged calls consistently just to fill floor numbers. We all see it. Meanwhile those actually working hard are left overworked and underappreciated. They delay our breaks and lunches for hours. Favoritism is rampant. Promotions go to the wrong people. HR protects management over employees. Excellent workers are discarded when they're no longer needed, lumped with those who are incompetent due to terrible training and support. They though it was 'smart' to change shifts in the middle of the week, leaving us with no more than 8 hours between shifts if you got trapped in volunteer overtime. Don't even get me started on their responses here. They pretend to care about those they laid off, offering fake sympathy while denying everything everyone says. It's all a coverup. This place has wrecked my mental health, and I’ve seen it destroy others too. Don’t fall for the fake reviews or responses... this place is toxic. If you value your sanity, stay far away.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. As a business aligned with the Open Enrollment period, our operations naturally follow a seasonal cycle. This is why many roles are temporary, a point we make clear during the hiring process. This model is common in industries with fluctuating demand, and our approach allows us to efficiently meet the needs of our clients during peak periods. High-performing agents are also considered for permanent roles based on business needs. We offer competitive compensation for our seasonal agents, which includes a strong base hourly rate along with opportunities for bonuses, ensuring that our team members are rewarded for their hard work. We’re truly sorry to hear that you felt unsupported and undervalued during your time with us. We take feedback like yours seriously and will continue working to ensure that our teams feel heard, appreciated, and set up for success. If you’d like to share more insights, we encourage you to reach out so we can better understand and address your concerns. We appreciate your contributions and wish you the best in your future endeavors.

Pros

- Supportive Leadership: Some team leads and supervisors genuinely care about their teams and go above and beyond to align representatives with the company's demands despite the hostile work environment . - Learning Opportunities: Provides exposure to navigating challenging situations, troubleshooting technical issues, and gaining knowledge about insurance—useful for those new to the field. - Career Growth (in Certain Circumstances): For those assigned to functional exchanges and able to adapt quickly, promotions are possible. Many promoted employees report advancing after only a short time due to their performance.

Cons

- Buggy Software and Poor System Design: The company’s software is plagued with unresolved bugs and critical design flaws that create chaos for employees and customers alike. Rushed data migrations from the marketplace databases resulted in widespread issues, including duplicate accounts, incorrect enrollments, and inaccessible data. Representatives are forced to deny customers insurance due solely to platform failures. These technical issues erode trust and make it nearly impossible for employees to provide effective support. - Lack of Transparency and Broken Promises: Management overpromised stability and overtime opportunities through OEP but failed to deliver. Instead, they overstaffed initially, only to lay off the majority of the workforce without warning, creating severe understaffing during the busiest period. Representatives were shuffled between marketplaces with little explanation, leading to inconsistent expectations. These poor decisions compounded the technical issues, leaving employees stretched thin as they juggle high call volumes and massive ticketing backlogs—yet they are held accountable for problems beyond their control. - Disorganized Training and Resources: Training programs failed to equip employees with the knowledge needed to address complex problems created by the company’s flawed systems. Resources are overly convoluted, with outdated or incomplete information that doesn’t reflect real-world scenarios. Employees are set up to fail from the start, expected to solve problems without adequate tools or information while being micromanaged and criticized for falling short of unattainable goals. - Unethical Layoff Practices: Temporary employees were terminated without warning during impersonal mass meetings, with their system access immediately revoked. Direct hires received a 2 month notice. These abrupt, poorly managed layoffs left the remaining workforce overwhelmed and scrambling to handle issues with no meaningful support from management, further eroding morale. - Uncompetitive Pay: The compensation offered for roles requiring high stress tolerance, technical expertise, and extensive multitasking is far below what is fair or competitive in the industry. Employees are expected to shoulder an immense burden for minimal reward.

Regarding your comment about denying customers coverage, it’s important to clarify that under the Affordable Care Act, individuals cannot be denied coverage as long as they enroll during the appropriate periods. Our systems are robust, as evidenced by the record-breaking enrollment numbers achieved by our clients year after year and consumers are not denied coverage. All of that being said, if you are still a current employee as it's noted above, I hope you take the time to address your concerns with your manager, as we have an open door policy.
