Pluspunten

I love the benefits here and groups you can join to keep up to date and in touch with others across the organization. Gainshare is also a plus to work towards. It's an annual bonus granted the whole organization based on a percent of your salary, company stock position, and performance (I believe). It's usually deposited before the New Year; maybe around November-ish. It's a GREAT addition and a plus to have before Christmas. The offer an opportunity for you to try a different role for a while and then you can apply for that role.

Minpunten

While I love learning about insurance in different states, the call volume is high, the shifts offered for customer service are usually horrible. The company used to allow shift bids AFTER training. Now, you can bid for a different shift 6 months after employment unless you make a special request to your HR coodinator. The shifts are usually 2nd shift and always include a weekend day. For example: Saturday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday 2pm-11pm or 10am-7pm or 10am -9pm I rate this a 3 for the high call volume, confusing guideline templates, and rough shift offers.

Pluspunten

Work from home and flexible scheduling, can slide schedule up to two hours to accommodate appointments, etc.

Minpunten

Unrealistic claim volume, it ramps up slowly when you're in training and then you start getting so many claims you don't know what to do with them. Customer service is constantly preached, but it's not possible to return voicemails, texts and emails timely while managing 20 claims a day. They keep increasing volume, and you have to spend a minimum of 5 hours a week taking live calls, during which you cannot make any calls out on your own claims, and are required to work each claim you take a call on to it's fullest point, even when they are brand new and unassigned, taking you away from taking action on your own claims that could prevent calls. They are incorporating AI and digital tools that were intended to simplify the process and reduce phone time, but customers are upset and refuse to participate, which means claims are delayed awaiting digital statements, and then need more phone calls anyway. The expectations are outrageous.
