CCS - A true American sweatshop

Pros

Learn about arbitration, third-party administration of insurance disputes/liability issues in the insurance industry.

Cons

I've worked a myriad of jobs throughout my career, this stood alone in terms of horrible management, deplorable work environment, and an overall sense of hopelessness among the work-force. CCS is an American sweatshop. The company maximizes profits while engaging in unsavory business practices that lack ethics and moral fiber. The bulk of its employees at this location are call-center employees making near minimum-wage, yet the company still charges employees $75 cents for a keurig cup of coffee. No fresh water supply available - half of the employees are sick which makes one question the quality of air/environment within the building. What is clear is that the higher-ups and management of the company simply do not care. They care only about the bottom-line and lining the pockets of the executive management while the rest of the company is grossly mismanaged, underpaid, and exploited as much as possible. I would imagine working at a fast-food restaurant would be a healthier environment for the majority of the CCS workforce (and likely would pay better salaries, incidentally).

Pros

insurance plans and other benefits seem to be above average, and human resources is actually very receptive and helpful when needed

Cons

There is too much favoritism to both new and young employees often verging on age discrimination. Time off for "favorite" new employees is not questioned, while those who have actually earned it (PTO time) are discouraged from taking it. Some supervisors violate their own policies such as, for example, allowing some employees to put in for time off outside of the "30 day window". while others are told point blank they are not allowed to do this. "Occurences" are given to some employees, but not to others for the exact same situations, and some employees (including supervisors) have 6 and more occurences but not have been given warnings and have not been terminated. There is a supervisor who is out very frequently-every few weeks she takes 1 or more days off, and is setting a very poor example for the people who work for her. FAVORITISM, which might be considered as discrimination, often as age or in other ways is awful here, and might soon be an issue for human resources or taken to an outside, higher, level. "Policies" are inconsistently applied, and this is noticed-especially in the inconsistent application of occurences. I work in the Portsmouth, NH office in collections as a customer service agent.

Pros

CCS is a great place to work, wonderful people to work with, were you’ll develop valuable skills and experience, reliable career advancement, very good entry-level pay as well as earnings potential.

Cons

The job can be somewhat monotonous but if you focus on helping each caller individually to the best of your abilities, the feeling of satisfaction of having helped every caller keeps you motivated. That and the awesome QA and Collections bonus program offered by the company can really help you thrive in this type of environment
