Pros

Overall it's a great company to work for. Benefits are super affordable, time off builds up nicely and for the most part it's a great place to work. But just like any company, the experience can vary from team to team. I have been fortunate enough to be on several great teams and have several great managers. But I know of others that have not had the same experience. Obviously this is a service company so you have to enjoy helping the client and getting their issues taken care of, or know who can. Is the customer always right, no, of course not, but you do what you can and when you can't help them you are usually able to tell them why. You almost always have the support of your management to do what needs to be done go get them taken care of. If you enjoy customer service this is a good place to be.

Cons

Pay is lagging behind the competition....for being such a large company and in the great financial position it's in....continual 3% increases are disappointing.

Pros

Nothing is good about working here.

Cons

Nobody is ever held accountable. Pay is awful. Benefits were all moved out of state, so all providers in the area are all out of network. Jobs are being moved to India. The list goes on. Sales is the absolute favorite department in the entire company. Nothing sales can do is ever wrong, even when they give false information to clients and then the support team has to deal with the fallback. Don't get me started on Payroll.... the entire department has gone to the wind. I honestly don't know how this company ever did good with payroll services. The #1 complaint i got from every single client I interacted with was they could never get ahold of their Payroll Specialist. The company's response to this was to start making other departments learn payroll duties. This year they moved insurance benefits to a plan out of Arkansas, which made every provider I was already seeing become out of network. I had my first major medical scare of my adulthood and ended up paying a few grand out of pocket because U of R was out of network. Promotions are non existent. They make you apply and interview for any role you want to move into. There is nothing good about working here, and i would advise anyone to stay away from them.
