Pros

Freedom to manage your own business plan. Good product quality. Work life balance was good if you managed it appropriately and say no to unnecessary travel.

Cons

Management was dogmatic and draconian. Minimal support, but in retrospect it forces you to become a much better business person than you ever thought you would become. Much like a university of sales management with baptism by fire . Think of "Survivor" & "The Apprentice" wrapped up in a job and that sums up your career experience at Health Advocate.

Pros

Flexible schedule, very diverse, unique culture, a lot of overtime available.

Cons

Some departments are very micromanaged. The blind leads the blind because of the fast turn around time for employees. People are constantly quitting or being let go so there aren't any pros or specialist. If you are there for 2 years or longer you are basically a senior advocate. The company is number driven and focuses more on the quantity of work than the quality. Depending on the department you are in you will have to answer a certain amount of calls or complete a certain amount of cases. If you don't make your numbers you will be written up, if you are "temp to hire" you'll be let go.
