Pros

Mutual company with decent benefits. Professional sales force. Unfortunately, sales force abilities are not reflected in home office employees. Definitely not a meritocracy. A real good olde boy or girl company for promotions.

Cons

Results not seem to matter. Senior management across the board is promoted based on who people know and not results. We constantly hear the phrase "transition year" when behind goals. Unfortunately, transition years never seem to end. Home office has become very politically correct and ability doesn't seem to matter. Company seems to be headed downhill rapidly under new CEO.

Pros

Flexibility, excellent work life balance, casual environment, easy to use PTO. Benefits: health, dental, STD/ACC, vision, 401k are excellent

Cons

Pay is much below the standard for the position, raises and bonuses are minimal and hardly reflect the effort that is required to maintain positive metrics/meet goals. Case managers' responsibility is at a max and we often feel overwhelmed by the workload and expectations of management. Case managers are often responsible for tasks outside of the important things that have an effect of the claim
