Pros

The benefits offered are out standing; each healthcare professional I have given my Dental, Health, Vision or prescription card has consistently remarked "Wow you have really great insurance." The majority of my co-worker are a pleasure to work with and a few have become dear friends.

Cons

There is rampant lack of communication. I personally have had several different supervisors in my years of employment with Covance. Just this year I realized that each time I changed to a new supervisor they had absolutely no idea of my accomplishments. This was rather surprising especially as every employee is subject to a mid-year and year-end performance review, which lists the employees accomplishments that year. Also when you put forth what you feel is a lot of effort into training, data base testing, and other things that are not technically listed as one of your job duties only just to receive review that you "MEET" expectations and after applying for promotion told you were not chosen because not everyone knows your skills you have. It's just ridiculous.

Pros

They take people who don't have any experience working in insurance and give them a chance to learn something new. You don't have to have a college degree to become a Supervisor. Great benefits package. Nice gym in the San Diego site. Generous PTO

Cons

You will be micromanaged. Low pay. The call center is divided by teams and some teams require more "work" than others. Which means, you can make the same pay as soandso even though he is taking 2 calls a day and doing nothing else while you're chasing down insurance companies, doctors offices, patients, taking 20+ calls a day by angry patients... basically stressed every minute of every hour. For people who are happy doing what they do everyday and who do not want to advance, you will find yourself doing things you dont want to do anyways because you have to make new goals for yourself every year and meet them if you want to get a better bonus or raise. You will be asked if you'd like to take on an assignment and if you object, they find a way to make you do it anyways BECAUSE THEY ALREADY TOLD THEIR OWN SUPERVISOR THEY WERE GOING TO GET YOU TO DO IT.
