Pros

- decent pay for entry level - training was very good and learned alot - worked with great people who had the same position

Cons

My biggest complaint was that how you are trained to do your job is completely different than how the job actually works. You are trained with customer service and fairness in mind, but the amount of work you are given and the rate at which you are expected to perform make it nearly impossible to treat customers and co-workers how they should be treated. Employees and claims are treated simply as numbers instead of people. You are seen as nothing but a set of job performance statistics, and training outside of your initial training period is limited.

Pros

Work from home, make your own hours, fun claim types, starts off with great PTO allotment and you have access to all your hours from the moment you start with an extra week after five years

Cons

Good luck with your diaries if you use the PTO. You will come back with overdue items. The way they have their PTO backup system setup is two backup people for the whole department. There is too much work for them so they don't get to much while you are out. Usually voicemails. You can' schedule anything for while you are gone, all your claims have to wait for you to return. The amount of new claims a week has drastically increased and it isn't sustainable. They do expect you to work more than your 40 hours or recommend that you find a different job that isn't a salary position, PTO calendars are always red with blackout dates. Supervisors and the manager don't listen to actionable items presented to make the department better. The attrition is bad, but they continue to tell us we are fully staffed because our diaries aren't that bad yet. Adjusters are dropping like flies but won't hire anymore. Not sure if that comes from senior leadership or direct leadership. Ever since Jeff Dailey left, we are just numbers. No one cares about us anymore and it is evident.
