Pros

Pay is alright. Benefits are pretty good. Dress code is technically business casual, but you’re in a cubicle on the phone all day, so you can get away with more casual attire. Kitchen/ break area has snacks and keuregs. Most coworkers are alright.

Cons

If you start out doing a later (evening) shift, even if they tell you you’ll get an earlier one, don’t expect it ANYTIME soon. Supervisors have a good heart, but hands are tied by corporate greed and obsession with metrics as opposed to actually caring for the members. Auto dialer sounds simple enough, but it’s a big reason I do not like this job. Even though we don’t sell anything, the company makes money off of prescription change requests started, so there is a lot of pressure to create them, even if it’s not a good fit for the member and the member is hesitant and leaning towards not interested. You can go above and beyond in your work, and they’ll find some way to screw you over or tell you you’re doing worse than you actually are. They are going to start implementing a new phone software system that utilizes AI, which is a recipe for disaster.

Pros

1. relatively aloof culture for ICs to grow on their own 2. on and off few people are good 3. Actually consultants in india are better than some full time hires to work with. The h1bs in full time roles and some GCs/Americans are just 1 step away from unemployment line but there are some good quality consultants who can be directed well to bring in good work. Problem is lack of direction when middle management is just running after money.

Cons

1. top most management is clueless to what is going post the middle tier 2. middle tiers - VPs/SVPs/Directors and Sr. Directors are among the worst. Mostly cast offs from Consulting firms/Tech cos/Other Healthcare firms, this group has some of the worst, clueless folks who just think very narrowly about how to get rid of problems, maybe craft a story for higher ups. Get rid of this layer ( so called people management ) and co. could shine better on the work of ICs, decent software engineers and regular rank and file. 3. Main money maker distribution is different from tech group and the IT here is almost comical - 2 years ago in 2024 there were "directors" bringing AI agents with 90% hallucination .. I mean that has got to be an industry first!
