Pros

For the temporary assignment, I was able to work 1st shift, 8-4:30 daily which was nice. Nice cafeteria. Somewhat clean bathrooms

Cons

I worked in a typical call center environment. Every phone call was monitored and bathroom breaks were timed. There was very little chance of getting time off when needed and not much opportunity for advancement. I didn't even get my own desk to work at. I worked in a temporary position with several others. One day after lunch in the middle of the week, they told us all that our assignment was over without any warning.

Pros

Nothing is good about working here.

Cons

Nobody is ever held accountable. Pay is awful. Benefits were all moved out of state, so all providers in the area are all out of network. Jobs are being moved to India. The list goes on. Sales is the absolute favorite department in the entire company. Nothing sales can do is ever wrong, even when they give false information to clients and then the support team has to deal with the fallback. Don't get me started on Payroll.... the entire department has gone to the wind. I honestly don't know how this company ever did good with payroll services. The #1 complaint i got from every single client I interacted with was they could never get ahold of their Payroll Specialist. The company's response to this was to start making other departments learn payroll duties. This year they moved insurance benefits to a plan out of Arkansas, which made every provider I was already seeing become out of network. I had my first major medical scare of my adulthood and ended up paying a few grand out of pocket because U of R was out of network. Promotions are non existent. They make you apply and interview for any role you want to move into. There is nothing good about working here, and i would advise anyone to stay away from them.
