Pros

Decent pay if not degreed but should be so much higher for what you will go through & have to deal with working here. Flexible scheduling & attendance policy. Green alert (WHEN AVAILABLE)

Cons

PREPARE TO BE NOTHING BUT A CRASH DUMMY FOR PROGRESSIVE INSURANCE. I wouldn’t wish this job position on anybody! Day in & day out your ears will bleed of complaints about insurance & unrealistic requests and demands from their customers. It is the most redundant, soul sucking type of work. And they don’t even have the decency to treat their employees like humans. You are expected to operate just like a robot. The demands from Progressive & the PAY don’t match at all. If you are talented or educated put yourself to use elsewhere. This is a dead end job, answering back to back calls, hearing the same thing over and over again. They give the same script to customers each year about why the insurance went up which could easily be sent out WITH the renewal offer. They promote moving up but who knows how long you’d have to stay in your current role miserably before that’ll even happen.

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.
