      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good pay and benefits Family friendly Great/flexible hours Ability to truly help people Constantly busy You might make lasting friendships with your coworkers

      Cons

      Must relocate to be promoted Work can be boring (a lot of the tasks feel like "data entry") Computer programs don't work properly Complexity of the law makes it nearly impossible to correctly figure benefits in all cases High Stress No maternity leave (must use sick/vacation days) It can be hard to get help if you don't know how to adjudicate a certain type of case

      Internship Review

      Intern
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The internship experience was overall very good. For one, the work hours had some flexibility. During the day, you get 30 minutes for lunch and two 15 minute breaks. In addition, the work environment is very low stress and there is no work to be done outside of the office. It is a friendly work environment. The pay was also very good for a temporary summer intern. If you return to the internship in subsequent summers, your salary grade is increased.

      Cons

      The only downsides to the job was that there was not too much challenge in the tasks given. Roles of the intern included the usual faxing, mailing, and basic administrative tasks.
