Abusive Leadership preys on hard workers
|
|
Free snacks, coffee, occasional lunches. Free swag. Fun holiday parties when your department is allowed off the phones to attend. Remote work 2 days a week or more.
Good PTO amounts, if you can request it fast enough since more than 1 can't be out at the same time.

Imagine you are a bricklayer. You are really excited about this new opportunity to lay bricks so you work really hard to help the company grow. You lay 4 tons of bricks per day for a whole year. All of your brick walls look great and you get great reviews. At some point a few months in, you notice some of the bricklayers next to you are only laying 1 ton of bricks per day. Your back starts hurting and you get really stressed out. Sometimes the company asks you to lay some of your coworkers bricks for them since they are so behind and their pile of bricks is toppling over because they are so slow. They call out sick a lot and take a lot of breaks. So the company gives you an extra 1-2 tons of bricks from their huge pile and now you are laying 6 tons of bricks per day for the same salary as the employees who are laying 1 ton of bricks per day. A lot of the other coworkers complain to you that they are taking on a lot of extra bricks too, every time they work with those few employees. Eventually, after a year of seeing this, your back hurts so bad that you decide to speak up to management. Instead of looking for the truth, management gets really angry and tells you that you are being negative and complaining about your coworkers. They threaten your job so you have to be quiet. Management keeps giving you extra work instead of working with the employees who are laying less bricks to help them work smarter or faster. Management applauds one of the employees laying 1 ton of bricks and has them showcase how exact their bricks are to all the other employees.
Healthcare calls are very stressful. Most calls contain a client with a huge amount of debt and claims. Often the clients are verbally abusive. Each call carries a mental health weight just like a ton of bricks. Leadership should be bonusing high performing employees who do their job well instead of threatening them.
My advice? Be the person who is happy and lays 1 ton of bricks. Seriously. Ride that easy paycheck and watch the company crumble, then move on to the next. You've probably gotten moved up into a higher salary before that point, given a leadership position, and can laugh at all your former coworkers breaking their backs like idiots for a company who does not give a blip about them. I was that idiot.

Stop discriminating, stop emailing political messages. Stop taking parents off the phones for 6 months and giving non parents 4x the work with angry calls all day. Do you even understand the weight of an angry phone call you cannot end versus an angry email you can just hit the delete button on?
You sent flowers to every person of one skin color but what about the rest? We didn't get any emails about the Trail of Tears or the Holocaust survivors. Where are their flowers, their company holidays? Their apologies? You have started a slippery slope that doesn't end.
Stop focusing on your own personal political agenda and focus instead on helping the company grow. Stop moving people up due to personality or positivity. It's easy to be positive when you only answer 4 calls a day.
When you are a leader, you are a shepherd. Your employees are your flock. If you are going to strongly push an experimental medical product with no manufacture liability that does not stop transmission nor infection on your flock, and also causes heart inflammation and 20,000+ deaths within 1 year, you should be responsible for any and all damages that arise. You are not their doctor, stop telling individuals what to do with their bodies.

Not a good place to work
|
|
Flexible pto policy and decent benefits.
|
Disorganized, no structure, departments would rather argue than work together it seemed like, everyone's got a chip on their shoulder or something. Company is struggling due to the plethora of bad choices made, both in management and in business decisions. I could honestly go on for a while about why you should avoid this place but everyone has already covered the bases. Don't ignore the negative reviews you're reading. They're all accurate.

Big Disappointment
|
|
Young company with diverse backgrounds
|
Little to no strategy or focus in several departments; Resources are non-existent; no sales or new clients in '20 which led to large client departures and significant loss of revenue. Looking for acquisition opportunities to stay afloat.

You don't want to work here - this company cannot fix healthcare in America
|
|
Some people are nice to work with
|
My preference is to give zero stars...
- CEO and other leaders inexperienced in healthcare and it impacts everything; zero confidence in CEO leadership abilities; CEO is petty with relationships, doesn't understand insurance but doesn't listen to others that do
- company takes advantage of people willing to help, does not provide appropriate title or salary commensurate to work
- long hours fixing never ending customer issues
- unlimited PTO policy you can never utilize because there are always fires
- no career pathing
- no performance reviews
- all aspects of the business process are a total mess, too much to describe here
- feedback not taken seriously, people are scared to share what is really happening because they are scared for their jobs
- people "laid off" without warning, some within just two weeks of starting

An Uphill Battle That Never Ended
|
|
Competitive pay, excellent benefits package, state of the art office space, remote work option
|
Abnormally high turnover, no HR department (added as of September 2020), clique culture, reactive management, extremely poor communication between departments, poor comparable ownership in other departments, much more responsibility outside of what you're hired for, hiring habits lead to weight being piled onto competent employees shoulders, poor product = angry customers 24/7, timid stance (neutral) on whether or not black lives matter

Reward employees who produce, invest in a payroll system that doesn't take advantage of employees, train all directors/leads/managers in basic payroll/HR legalities, value informed change over reactive band aids, get rid of "unlimited PTO" and move toward accrual, continue to train employees instead of putting what they lack on the shoulders of others, hold other departments outside of Member Care accountable for turnaround times, errors and department specific duties and lastly: when this honest review is published online, take the time to LEARN from it - the CEO shouldn't brush this off as a "bitter employee" and ask 70 employees in an All Hands Meeting to post fake, knee jerk positive reviews to make up for a negative experience that Apostrophe created - instead, learn from this.
