Pros

Good vacation accruals after 5 years.

Cons

Lack of staff, no training and too much work for a typical 8 hour day. Nobody covers for you if you actually take a day off, so you feel as if you're being punished for using a benefit that you've earned. You get "promoted" but there's never time to actually get trained for the job you're keeping a chair warm in. Most people just wing it and pretend they know what they're doing. Management never steps in to help with backlogged work but expect you to work extra hours or give up weekends to get the job done.

Pros

Excellent pay structure to offset poor benefits and high healthcare costs. There is no Short Term Disability offered.

Cons

Management frequently lies to clients and employees about adjust case loads. Adjusted frequently experience case loads of 150 to 200 cases per desk. Management lies to clients regarding adjuster turnover and account managers are expected to lie as well. Alcohol is a big part of Corvel culture. During my first week of employment I was expected to drink with my regional VP and a client. During the conversation the client became extremely intoxicated and began mocking me. The VP looked on and said, none of this matters. This is just some hazing. Managers do not take the time to develop their cohorts. They bully people into working harder and taking on more than they can physically manage. When you make a mistake the response is not, let’s learn from this. The response is, do it again and you’re fired. This is common Corvel culture. This is very much a classic corporate greed structure that pushes people to their breaking points, fires them, and funds someone else to plug the hole.
