Pros

Health insurance coverage, gym membership reimbursement, tuition assistance for certificates and continuing education.

Cons

The company aggressively acquires new client contracts without hiring adequate examiner staff to service them. As a representative, your day involves fielding calls from client employees about claims issues, then attempting to escalate to examiners who are frequently offline or unavailable. When examiners don't respond, you set return-to-call requests, but supervisors are often offline as well. This creates dead-end claims where nobody actually reviews the case. Break and lunch policies are insufficient. Nine-hour shifts come with only a thirty-minute lunch and two fifteen-minute breaks. When mandatory overtime is added, the company doesn't automatically provide additional breaks—you have to ask for them. An hour lunch with an additional fifteen-minute break should be standard and wouldn't impact operations. Many examiners are dismissive and rude when you reach out to them about claims. They act like responding to your escalation is a favor rather than part of their job. Some client accounts don't even have assigned examiners, meaning claims sit unreviewed indefinitely. The company continues this cycle while paying customer service representatives seventeen eighty-five per hour for managing these impossible situations.

Pros

The benefits are okay I suppose but they'll deduct your PTO from your severance pay. It's basically a ripoff loan.

Cons

-Constant harassment and hounding from Team Leads. -Unrealistic expectations for case load productivity. Mind you, the maximum expected amount of diaries to be completed is 80+. You're expected to make and take calls while also juggling case notes, emails,and Teams messages that pull you away from your current task. And the workload is moved constantly, regardless of an employee is absent,tardy, or even still present despite being heavy across the board. But you're expected to finish it all "productively" within 8 hours. No overtime and minimal assistance. -Good audit scores don't matter. You could have 98% to 100% , leadership will burn you for missing a few notes or if you're behind on other people's work while also being behind on yours. They say they're understaffed but they refuse to hire more people unless it's your replacement. -You're practically working on a sinking ship.
