Pros

Relaxed environment and friendly staff. A lot of paid time off annually.

Cons

Management is lacking. Lots of unnecessary steps in order to pay low dollar amount claims. Very little training, but high expectations. Micromanaging and inefficiency is pretty much the name of the game in this position. No room for advancement. Promotions are handed out based on how long you have worked at the company and not necessarily how well you do your job. Pay is ridiculously low and raises are impossible to get. First TPA I have worked for that makes you go against the client. Weird.

None at this time! It’s a great company, just wish you were in Minnesota!

Pros

Friendly co-workers, vacation and personal days ok.

Cons

Strong presence of nepotism. Micromanaging!!! Many managers lack experience and effective leadership skills. Poor management practices in the Los Angeles office. The office space is very small, with little privacy—everyone can hear conversations. No privacy in the workplace — conversations can be overheard by everyone. A camera is installed, creating the impression that all conversations are being monitored. Employees are seated in a crowded, open layout that feels unprofessional and uncomfortable, more like a kindergarten setting than an office.
