Pros

Direct superiors are supportive and truly care about employee engagement. The role is challenging and provides an opportunity to learn valuable skills that will help in career growth like client consulting and project management.

Cons

Horribly understaffed. The role has no boundaries and Client Managers are forced to take on work from all other departments to keep the project moving. Alight slots as many clients as possible in the interest of the bottom line and does not hire enough client managers to oversee the projects. Constantly working nights and weekends to meet deadlines. Alight partners with terrible vendors and outsources work as much as possible to underqualified colleagues resulting in Client Managers having to often work extra hours to pick up their slack.

Pros

Remote work with base pay. Some PTO. Telesales with scripts and all inbound pre-made appointments.

Cons

First of all, I thankfully came from another Medicare agency where I learned the backbone of Medicare education because Alight did not educate the employees on the essentials of Medicare; so I'm glad I already had that foundation otherwise I would have spiraled right on out of that position right at the beginning. I never got paid the commission I was promised. The first phone interview stated that I would receive all commission as one lump sum by the end of March. So after working AEP (OCT through DEC) I was waiting patiently for the commission from nearly 200 enrollments I completed. In Jan, I received 50% of my expected commission and never saw the remainder 50% come through. I reached out to multiple people including my direct management with no response. This position was temporary for potential permanency, I was asked to stay on without clarity and it basically turned into customer service support (and occasional enrollments.) The customer service was extremely heavy from all of the agents who did not do a great job - a lot of unhappy customers were calling in at the end of 2025 and beginning of 2026. The amount of commission per enrollment was never given to me in writing, so I had to learn a lesson the hard way. I left in February.
