Pros

Super flexible hours, frequent shift bid options, last minute pto use, loads of training, options to promote after 6 months (7 months for me), annual raises, perks, and a bonus option around Dec that's based off metrics and % of gross annual income. Loads of pros and overall a great company/employer.

Cons

Biggest gripe is a metric they have for referring renters and homeowners. They say it's not sales but there's a whole separate metric and they will hassle you if you don't meet their goal. This means you can talk to the customer for half an hr about the product but if they don't take a quote, you get NO credit for it. This is a very huge pain point throughout the csr group, not just me.

Pros

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

Cons

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.
