Pros

Good Cafeteria food in the NY office. Casual dress policy bodes well with many. You can sleep in the bathroom stalls.

Cons

Management has an outdated outlook. Six Sigma has been around since the early 80's yet, thats what they have embaced now. Too much reliance on consultants who are there to make money for themselves. Inconsistant message: Stealth layoffs being conducted while management tells staff that things are going well.

Pros

Flexibility, excellent work life balance, casual environment, easy to use PTO. Benefits: health, dental, STD/ACC, vision, 401k are excellent

Cons

Pay is much below the standard for the position, raises and bonuses are minimal and hardly reflect the effort that is required to maintain positive metrics/meet goals. Case managers' responsibility is at a max and we often feel overwhelmed by the workload and expectations of management. Case managers are often responsible for tasks outside of the important things that have an effect of the claim
