Pros

It’s a great company with a lot of potential. They provide opportunities for training and invest in their people. They have average pay with a lot of great benefits.

Cons

No matter how hard you work or how much effort you put in, it doesn’t matter here. It feels like being back in high school it’s a popularity contest. Managers funnel NSS and SOAR referrals to the people they favor. Even if you’re actively working a territory, it won’t make a difference referrals still go to the chosen few. Managers will even manipulate the system to help low performing individuals hit their goals. For context, company rankings show that only about 5% of the entire district consistently hits quota, with just a handful making it to conference. So dream big but not too big. Trust me, you won’t get very far here. And if they try to sell you a dream, remember they’re just looking for another churn and burn employee.

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.
