Avantages

Some Good people, good benefits, lots of food choices in cafeteria

Inconvénients

Progressive constantly wins the best place to work but it’s a lot of smoke and mirrors. They offer perks and do fun things to cover up the fact that Customer service representatives get treated poorly by the company and by customers. You are told it’s a customer service job, but you will be pressured constantly to upsell and suggest other products to “lock the customer in” to other policies so they don’t leave. Once the customer turns down your offer, they expect you to ask again. If you don’t have perfect metrics you usually get stuck with a weekend day or a crappy schedule. Every single minute you spend off of the phone is tracked. If you need a minute of relief off of the phone, you have to use your break time. I worked here a couple years and I could count on one hand the days where the calls were NOT back to back to back for 8 hours. If you have any type of anxiety do not take a job in this role. The metrics and constant calls/customers calling you every name in the book is not worth it. You won’t be able to move up out of this role and You can find something for the same pay and not be as stressed.

Wonderful people, great networking opportunities and skills training for different roles. They have flexible options for time off outside of PTO. Their VTO comes in handy. Theirs options to switch a working day and make-up time with an off day and vice versa.

It's harder to move into a role outside of your department, but easy to move laterally within it.

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.
