Pros

Great work/life balance, remote schedule is pretty flexible. We are not micromanaged. Tons of opportunities to learn as a newer developer - lots of classes offered, many self paced learning tools available. Decent benefits and nice 401k program

Cons

End of year bonus is tied to company gainshare factor - when the factor is low bonuses will be very small. It is not related to your personal performance. Promotions from entry level to intermediate can be challenging- there seems to be an emphasis on spending 2 years at the company, rather than focusing on skill level. If your manager does not schedule you for promotion at the end of the fiscal year, there is very little chance it will go through the following year. PTO takes forever to accrue as a new hire.

Pros

Work from home and flexible scheduling, can slide schedule up to two hours to accommodate appointments, etc.

Cons

Unrealistic claim volume, it ramps up slowly when you're in training and then you start getting so many claims you don't know what to do with them. Customer service is constantly preached, but it's not possible to return voicemails, texts and emails timely while managing 20 claims a day. They keep increasing volume, and you have to spend a minimum of 5 hours a week taking live calls, during which you cannot make any calls out on your own claims, and are required to work each claim you take a call on to it's fullest point, even when they are brand new and unassigned, taking you away from taking action on your own claims that could prevent calls. They are incorporating AI and digital tools that were intended to simplify the process and reduce phone time, but customers are upset and refuse to participate, which means claims are delayed awaiting digital statements, and then need more phone calls anyway. The expectations are outrageous.
