Pros

My experience at Unum has been great. They have paid for school, benefits are good, salary is extremely competitive, and I have received numerous opportunities for growth in my career. After working for several other employers I finally came to Unum due to the recommendation of several friends. Of course all jobs have their bad days and no employer is perfect, but overall I have been extremely impressed with management and have been treated very well.

Cons

As others have mentioned, your experience is directly affected by your department and the type of work you do. Be sure to evaluate the work carefully when interviewing and don't hesitate to ask specific questions before accepting a position (ask what a typical day looks like, what the department goals are, if there are production requirements, etc). There are many positions with unfamiliar names, so if you don't ask you may not be 100% sure what your job will look like. Also, this is a LARGE company. I have worked for both large and small companies and I enjoy the hustle and bustle of large corporations. If you prefer a small company this may not be a good fit for you.

Pros

Pto, good company to work for career wise, good discounts on things+discount for food on site.

Cons

Overworked like crazy, I was hired a few months ago but am already looking for something else, due to the stress and constant feeling of “wow finally i think im starting to get this” all to be reminded when submitting your tasks for mentor review you either did it right or have to redo the whole entire thing from scratch that is if your mentor is even available. Depending on your mentor as well that can really damper your experience and overall understanding. Training could have been done a lot better initially with constant exposure to different task types and different material. For example Medical certifications could have been shown over and over again for us to understand if it’s complete, incomplete and what significant health condition it would be for coding. With other team members also leaving as training ended and senior team members leaving once we got assigned the writing was on the wall. I really wanted to give Unum a shot and really try to see myself here, maybe it’s just the position of leave specialist or maybe all the jobs are the same, still can’t help but wonder if another position would’ve suited me better if they allowed role transfers sooner instead of waiting a minimum full year.
