Pros

Cleanest call center ever! Many extremely nice, knowledgeable people. The permanent employees as a whole are great folks, usually in a good mood, and genuinely out to help people to the best of their ability. They ran contests giving prizes for most enrollments, etc. There was a possibility of up to a $750 bonus, but factoring in about 10 different (very different) situations affecting your bonus, it was close to impossible to obtain this amount. They provide meals a few times a month usually pizza which is nice. You will obtain your Life & Health insurance license through the company at their expense. This is a fast paced job during open enrollment and time goes by quickly.

Cons

Parking is minimal at best. During open enrollment unless you choose a very early shift, you can't park in the main lot, although they did add some to the parking lot in December, not utilizing the space well in my opinion. Nobody working seasonal was paid for any holidays or given any time off for the holidays only 24 hours. When the season ends, they have your supervisor standing at your desk when you get in, tell you assignment over and have you clean out your desk. Not nearly enough training in practical experience to start with, you learn as you go. Rather than keep the the new hires who meet company standards, each year they have a hiring event. The caliber of people in some instances have been below par, generally these are the first that get let go at the end of the season.

Pros

I gained experience in the insurance industry, great knowledge of Medicare and Affordable Care Act plans, customer service and call center experience. Helping people get insurance is very satisfying.

Cons

Lack of: organization, training, systems that work, communication This is a call center. Everything you do is timed and counted. On the phone, employees are to portray OE as a professional company that cares about the individual. Off the phone, employees are treated as though they are disposable. Very, very few people are made full time employees. There are people who have worked here for years who are still considered temporary, and can be laid off at any moment. They have a "lay off schedule" that is made weeks in advance, but they do not inform employees of this to allow them to begin searching for jobs. The constant fear of being laid off makes for a sad and stressful work environment.

Pros

Helping seniors understand and choose the right Medicare plan offers a sense of doing good.. Job is easy to get. Work is easy once you learn the process.

Cons

Temps are second-class employees. Management is unprofessional. Very little communication of what is required to advance. People are let go suddenly without rhyme or reason.
