Pros

Lots to learn. Great coworkers. Direct management is ok. Bonus is a percentage. There are yearly raises unless you get a bad review.

Cons

Upper management only cares about the bottom line and catering to business that brings money. They don’t care about retaining skill. They don’t listen to the people that actually keep the business running. Raises are laughable. Doesn’t even keep up with inflation. After all. It’s an insurance company. They excel at bringing money in and not letting any of it go, except for people with alphabet titles.

Pros

Good support for new people managers were very helpful and always available

Cons

Micromanage every second of your time; have to put in a request to go to the bathroom and wait for someone to grant it Expect you to put exceptions to your time after your shift ends on your own time Half hour lunch by the time I brought my lunch or heated my leftovers and went to the bathroom. I barely had time to wolf it down. Unrealistic call times Systems are horrible and crashing all the time expect you to be in at least 15 minutes before your shift unpaid to set up all the programs on your computer
