Pluspunten

I love the people I work with. I've never worked with such over all amazing people, from fellow guides, to supervisors, managers, etc. Everyone I've met is so genuine, intelligent and kind. The pay is solid (higher than average), and they do their best to listen to feedback and make changes based on feedback.

Minpunten

The benefits outside of pay are average. They hire people who have been CEOs, managers, etc for entry level positions (probably why the pay has to be so good). It ends up creating an overly competitive environment, and its very difficult to move up. Communication is fully through slack/instant messaging so it's not easy to organize information in a way that makes sense to the individual, everything gets thrown at you from all the company channels you have to be a part of. I would venture to guess that this is why interdepartmental communication is so terrible. The supervisors appear to be very overworked and are almost always running late because they get scheduled back to back meetings and the meetings typically don't end on time. When I was first hired members were for the most part very kind, but it appears devoted is not scaling at the proper capacity in order to meet member needs. We used to get maybe one complaint a week, now expect to get multiples a day.

Thank you so much for giving us your honest feedback. We are very happy that you recognize part of what makes Devoted an amazing place to work - namely, our “amazing people!” We also are firm believers that hearing your concerns can only help us improve. That said, regarding our benefits, Devoted has a strong commitment to taking care of our employees´ physical, mental and emotional health. Our benefits strategy is designed to support all aspects of our employees lives by offering a fully funded (premium free) health plan (including dental and vision) for employees and all dependents. We offer competitive time off, holidays and a 401K plan. We believe that hiring Guides from a range of backgrounds is our strength, and all Guides have an equal opportunity to pursue multiple career paths both within the Guide team and elsewhere at Devoted. We are continuing to grow, and as we do so, new positions are created all the time. It’s an exciting company to be part of, and Guides are perfectly positioned to be on a journey towards success. Slack does take some getting used to if you have not used it in a previous job, but once you do, it allows for easy and quick communication, transparency, and positive collaboration. We give our Member Service Guides regular time off the phones so that they can catch up on any messages they may have missed. As for interdepartmental communication, there is always room for improvement. We have different initiatives underway that we are so happy to hear will have an impact on Guide satisfaction, and we are always looking for ways to improve our connections with other teams. We understand that working in a high-growth, fast-paced environment is not for everyone. Everyone who works at Devoted keeps a busy schedule, but our leaders are committed to supporting Guides in every possible way. When it comes to our members, anyone who works in a customer-facing job can understand that you may speak to a happy customer or a dissatisfied one. These are difficult times, especially for our older population, which can sometimes influence the way they present themselves on phone calls. Because we know that sometimes members may express themselves in ways that can be challenging for some Guides, we have resources in place, including a unique stress reduction program, to help our Guides feel loved and supported. Member Service Guides are critical to the mission of Devoted Health, and we continually strive to make the work experience of a Member Service Guide as supported, healthy, and joyful as possible.

Pluspunten

The company's culture is truly exceptional, starting from a very smooth and professional hiring and training process. I feel deeply valued, not just as an employee but as a person. There are real opportunities for growth; for example, I was promoted from T1 to T2 in just two months! The pay and benefits are very competitive, but what I value most is the genuine sense of belonging and my amazing team. It is a workplace where collaboration between departments is a reality and you actually enjoy coming to work every day

Minpunten

As with any customer service role, you occasionally have to deal with frustrated or difficult customers. While it can be challenging, I understand it is part of the nature of the job, and the company provides good support to handle these situations.
