Pros
Outstanding starting salary as an entry level employee, option of "cross lines" movement to stay challenged after you've exhausted yourself in your current role, the last resort option to go into red alert mode and take state-protected Stress Leave
Cons
Sink or Swim environment from the moment you are activated within the claims system, minimal individual assistance from a designated training resource. Performance strictly graded by your ability to call a claimant / worker / insured within a designated time frame; salary increases and bonuses not based on experience, extra specialty work performed, or seniority; requirements to take on additional work not within your job description with little to no recognition or monetary compensation. An absolute GUARANTEE that your work-life balance will be eliminated completely within a year of hire. Workflow developments designed to streamline the claims resolution process are implemented at a level unfamiliar with individual state requirements, and therefore create inefficiency.
