Pros

Flexible hours, training has improved, fully work from home.

Cons

There is no base pay. You get paid by the piece. Piece rates are often not reflective of the work actually needing to be done. They sell it like you can make as much money as you work for but it's not possible to get the work done correctly and make even $15 dollars an hour. This wasn't as much of a problem when they also allowed you to filter for the easier claims to balance it out. Now that's not allowed but the piece rate has not been increased. Often process changes just increase your work load but raises don't really exist because you're just paid by the same piece rate as the brand new guy. Technically there's an hourly rate that's used for training. If there are system issues you pay for it by not being paid. Tons of overtime is expected and essentially required if you want to pay your bills.

Pros

Remote, Company provides equipment, No Weekends. Gain your experience and move on!

Cons

People with higher education do not succeed with this company. Peanut shells for pay (not the whole peanut) with expensive “benefits”. Very much ran on favoritism. Some leaders micro manage to the point of not wanting to clock in to a remote position, yet take zero initiative in training you at any time during your onboarding. Equipment is subpar. Beware of the HIPAA violations!!!!!
