Avantages

They pay you correctly most of the time.

Inconvénients

The training program is long, and monotonous. Sadly through all this training, I learned very little. The real training begins when you start talking to these insane customers over the phone. I mean, if you think about it, what kind of people even call the customer service phone number for an insurance company? Not me. I never call mine. People who are broke, scamming, or up to some craziness call. Customers love to ask weird hypothetical questions that are probably not hypothetical questions just to see how a claim would turn out after they've been involved in some insane situation. As a rep you are not allowed to answer hypothetical questions, and the customers become irritated and think you are hiding information, or that you are stupid. There is no chance for advancement at this company. Everyone who is in management has been there for 20 years, and trust me, if you work there for 20 years you will want to jump off of a bridge. Ultimately, no one cares about you as a person, they feel that they can go ahead and hire another idiot to do your job at any moment. And they absolutely will.

Avantages

Work from home and flexible scheduling, can slide schedule up to two hours to accommodate appointments, etc.

Inconvénients

Unrealistic claim volume, it ramps up slowly when you're in training and then you start getting so many claims you don't know what to do with them. Customer service is constantly preached, but it's not possible to return voicemails, texts and emails timely while managing 20 claims a day. They keep increasing volume, and you have to spend a minimum of 5 hours a week taking live calls, during which you cannot make any calls out on your own claims, and are required to work each claim you take a call on to it's fullest point, even when they are brand new and unassigned, taking you away from taking action on your own claims that could prevent calls. They are incorporating AI and digital tools that were intended to simplify the process and reduce phone time, but customers are upset and refuse to participate, which means claims are delayed awaiting digital statements, and then need more phone calls anyway. The expectations are outrageous.
