Pros

My coworkers are some of the best people I've ever met - probably because misery loves company.

Cons

I will openly admit that pretty much ANY claims job is going to be difficult. It is a negative enviroment and you're frequently dealing with hostile customers, a high work load, and heavy deadline-driven tasks. That being said, LM makes to make a bad situation worse. They bog the system down with ridiculous, tedious processes. They want everything done on a converyor belt approach, probably so they can eventually outsource everything to India. You are not reviewed. You are 'calibrated'. They tout Lean, then demand redundancies in almost every task. At least in my office, corporate politics rule the day. People are promoted based on who they know, not what they do. I literally dread going to work everyday and when I inevitably get fired, I'm not going to cry. I'm going to do a backflip.

Pros

Work from home, only in office twice a month

Cons

-Extremely high paced -Too many claims. Caseload is way too big. -Super stressful having to deal with customers. A lot of them don’t understand insurance or what their policy covers so you will constantly deal with pissed off uninformed insureds -metrics are unrealistic and unattainable. You need to have a 98% answer rate but at the same time you have a million cases and people calling you constantly so this is impossible to achieve. On top of that you have to actually document and determine liability. -Awful work life balance
