Pros

good healthcare coverage and I liked my peers

Cons

Low pay, customer service employees are hounded to push out calls nonstop making for a poor work/life balance, with no incentive whatsoever to do better, but if you don't do an insane number of calls you will have a low score and reprimanded. Little guidance for growth, very strict and just poor management overall. Felt like a number not a human being. Management doesn't care about the quality of care you deliver to the patients-- they care about the statistics of the phone call. So if you are on one call for a long period of time because you have to go above and beyond to help a patient, it actually works against your overall score. If you are even one minute late you are docked way too much. mandatory overtime for months at a time with no hopes for it ending.

Pros

Was a great company 5 years ago. Declined heavily in the last 3 years. Way too many lay offs and restructuring.

Cons

Favoritism. Manager has no answers looks to someone they manage for answers. This person gatekeeps information and is overall toxic. Contradictory instructions. Managers will rely on bad information and then different managers will give you conflicting orders. If you try to go to the upper managers they will terminate you and lie about it. You could be asked to solve problems you were not hired for.
