Pros

None. At all. Trash job.

Cons

I worked there for 8 years, and it was a constant struggle. I had great audit scores, I was always within TAT, and I provided training. I was constantly disrespected and ostracized for trying to do my best with no reward. After 5 years of being a "top performer" with no recognition I started to get bitter. The coworkers are also horrific and wouldn't pee on you if you were on fire. Just mean girl, old white hag mentality that gets you promotions and I just couldn't be that person. Almost a year later and I don't have anxiety anymore or depression. This job is NOT worth it. It's not. I'm thriving elsewhere and appreciated.

Pros

Repetitive work, Easy to learn, and simple

Cons

Micro Managed to hell and back. You spend 10 seconds too long on a claim, and you'll get a message about. Had an executive die while working there. Put a lot into perspective.
