Pros: option on some jobs to telecommute, fair pay and benefits, good training.
Cons: perception on our unit was that they do not care about the members, just about the dollars. management is way out of touch and needs to walk the walk, not just talk the talk.
I was thrilled to have a telecommute job and worked hard to complete training and get on board. But, soon learned this was a culture of avoid management, do not ask questions, almost bordering on paranoia.

I was fired even after improving my work. I and my coworkers knew this was a no win situation. It has been months, and I still cannot get over how I was mistreated. They had no interest in looking at the real problem, and put all the blame on me. I have decades of positive work experience, have ongoing anxiety and depression from this experience, and wonder what their contribution is to my inability to even find a job. Do not work here. I have never been treated so poorly, I worked extra hours to do a good job, but they still got rid of me in a very nasty way. – less

The exact same thing happened to me. The training in the classroom did not include many of the resources to do the job, and the manager did nothing to help me. I felt harassed,bullied and humiliated. It was too nerve racking to stay, so I just resigned. I will be writing to the corporate office. I have a friend that experienced the same thing.
