Pros

Volunteer opportunities 401k Matching Coworkers

Cons

Giving full transparency regarding the role since honest expectations are not incorporated into the interview/new hire process: Upper Management is extremely out of touch with reality of the role and they set expectations that the department as a whole can not exceed. Expect to be micromanaged to the fullest extent and constantly nagged in effort to achieve said unrealistic expectations. Expect to take phone calls for 4 hours a day while managing a ridiculously high claim count. Expect to work weekends/holidays and expect to be guilted when you don't "volunteer" to their satisfaction. Expect to work after hours to manage claims (that you really should be afforded time to do during the workday but again, phones are all that matter). Expect to work long nights and weekends during catastrophe season (during this time, you aren't given the "OK" to sign off until management gives you permission) . - - General Info: The company would rather hire external candidates than internal employees. PTO is NOT UNLIMITED as advertised and is very difficult to obtain. Expect to have to give 110% of your mental and emotional wellbeing for this role with nothing more than "Thank you for being there for the membership when they really need your support". - - If you're looking for a sign to NOT take this job - this is it. Many new hires come into the role enthusiastic and optimistic, and quickly shift their mindset by month 1. People constantly quit and when this happens, the rest of the team is dealt with the remaining work. You will jeopardize your mental wellbeing for this role and management will continue to take and take from you. I would not recommend this role to anyone.

Pros

Pros: Very good benefits - comprehensive healthcare plan, passion course tuition reimbursement, exercise incentives, very high 401k match, and more Friendly employees - Everyone on my team (minus my passive-aggressive manager) was very friendly and willing to help. You could randomly reach out to others within the company with questions and still receive assistance Training - Pretty comprehensive 6 week training program. Should definitely be a more hands-on training course but the staff who handle those 6 weeks are extremely good

Cons

Cons: Workload - Workload is insane for a company that constantly states how much it "values work life balance". After speaking with numerous other employees, I was hard-pressed to find anyone who didn't start nearly an hour or more early each day; while also working past their ending schedule Unrealistic expectations: I consistently worked 12 hour days with 10-15 minute lunches and I still could not keep up with the metrics I was supposed to be hitting. The Member Advocates are expected to hit extremely hard metrics and it was broadcasted to my entire team when you were not. Management ideology/Understaffed problems: Management tended to have the idea that if you weren't hitting your metrics, it was because you couldn't manage your time effectively. When it was clear on a day to day basis that the reason a lot of MA's were struggling was because we were understaffed. Company Ideology: PURE constantly pushes the idea that they are a "different" insurance company because they don't "churn and burn" their clientele. However, with the workload that is pushed onto the Member Advocates, it's impossible to provide the extra care and time that leadership expects. In addition to that, many of PURE's clientele seem to fall into the category of expecting expedited service because of their financial positions.

A lot of work for little pay

Pros

A lot of young people, but that had it's own cons.

Cons

Low pay and a lot of responsibility. We are expected to please the membership no matter what, even if they are being extremely unreasonable. Also are required to work two weekends every three months
