Even the good has some bad - Anonymous employee GetInsured Employee Review

First, we want to thank you for sharing your thoughts. It’s always good to get feedback from current employees. You can be sure it will be circulated internally. Second, we wanted to address some of your concerns. We do provide lunch twice a week as a benefit to employees. You can certainly look at it as a way to keep employees in the office, but more positively, we look at it as a way to encourage cross-departmental interaction, while also saving employees some money each week on lunch. We actually provide several cost-saving programs for employees in addition to free lunch, like commuter and cell phone reimbursements. There are also a host of additional employee savings on gyms and outings available through the internal company site. If you’re not aware of these, please be sure to touch base with HR. As far as health benefits, several options are provided — all at very little cost to the employee. Our benefits program is quite competitive in the marketplace and we were pleased to be able to offer the same level of benefits for 2018 without any added cost to employees. For the most part, managers at GetInsured do not believe in micromanaging. Employees at the company are trusted to get their work done on time and with a certain level of quality. We think that says a lot about the capable people we hire — that they don’t need to be watched over. Turnover is natural in our industry — especially now. Since the new administration took office, there have been several failed health bills, and there are a lot of open questions as to what the future holds in regards to health insurance in this country. However, most of the team at GetInsured view this as a tremendous opportunity to be at the forefront of this evolving market and continue to help individuals, companies, states and insurers navigate the new waters. We are constantly thinking of new ways to respond to the market and innovating enrollment platforms — and we think that’s pretty exciting. Every other month, GetInsured holds its board meetings. Following each of these, there is an All Hands employee meeting in which our CEO talks to the entire company covering latest updates. If you haven’t attended these, we encourage you to do so. It’s a great chance to stay on top of the latest thinking from the highest level of the company. Recently, we have been working diligently to add additional communication points in between board meetings to keep everyone up-to-speed on what’s happening. We have an open door policy at GetInsured, so if you feel that you are not being communicated to enough from your manager, please feel free to speak with him/her.
