      Stuck in their ways, very stagnant

      13 Feb 2023 - Software Engineering Senior Analyst 
      Recommend
      CEO Approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Health insurance and related benefits are pretty decent. There are quite a few good people who genuinely try their best to make things better at the company.

      Cons

      Most if not all the teams utilize outdated hardware and software, with extremely slow turnaround time on fixing issues, updating software, deprecating EOL hardware/software, and overall lacking in drive to make things better. Management would rather pay for many outsourced unqualified contractors to act as technical support 24/7 than hire software engineers to develop solutions to their problems. Similarly, management would rather maintain legacy code from the early 2000's than to replace those projects with modern programming languages, frameworks, tools, and technologies. I also personally had a bad manager, who kept pushing for technologies that I believed should have been a much lower priority for us to move forward with compared to the exponentially rising technical debt that we were accruing. This manager also disrespected a coworker who was dealing with an immediate family member that was dying, telling them to prioritize work over their terminally ill relative.

      Very Stressful & Micromanaged

      19 Mar 2023 - Customer Service Representative in Columbus, OH
      Recommend
      CEO Approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I learned some new skills and met new people.

      Cons

      The call center is very fast paced, CSR's take over 100 calls per day. Members can be rather rude and insensitive, screaming and cussing about issues the CSR's have no control over and had no hand in. Supervisors change constantly. The turn over rate is high. Metrics have to be met. You are micromanaged. The pay is low in comparison to the companies expectations. You can not recommend that an angry member speak with a supervisor so you sit and listen to them talk down to you and degrade you. Not worth the stress and anxiety!

      Decent starting pay

      24 Feb 2023 - Prescription Benefit Specialist in Houston, TX
      Recommend
      CEO Approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent priced Cigna insurance. Room for growth. Monthly bonuses based off metrics. Bonus structure based off your effort. Paid (most) holidays off. Nice superiors.

      Cons

      No matter how great your “conversion” rate is, your Quality must be great or else you get no bonus. Some SMEs provide inaccurate info. Training classes don’t offer extra pay. No shift differential pay. No extra pay for speaking another language. Metrics include hold time while waiting for another dept (which can take a really long time).

      Work/Life Balance

      Recommend
      CEO Approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Extremely flexible hours. Managers always support time off if needed or earned; they only care if you prioritize getting tasks done and staying up-to-date on clients' agreements/arrangements.

      Cons

      There were times that I would not have anything to do, but I learned to use the free time to develop skills and learn the "why" behind what we do for clients.
