Coders beware! Not really hired when you think you are. No work for current coders
Pros
Salary, benefits, flexible schedule. Sounds good but not worth the stress.
Cons
"hired" doesn't really mean hired. You are given 8 hours (yes you read that right EIGHT) hours to get up to speed or you are let go. They interview and "hire" dozens of coders at a time, spend money on a drug screen, background check, a week of training and are unwilling to work with you if you cannot maintain a ludicrous 90% accuracy after 16 charts. No telling how much this process is costing the company. All the while current employees are being put on hold due to no work. A word of advice to other coders who are interested in this company: Go through the training session and take it as a generously-paid lesson in HCC coding. Don't get your hopes up, though. If "management" allows you to continue on (oh thank you massa!!) you get to work in a stress filled environment where your work is picked apart constantly. Some coders are even working off the clock to meet production standards, up to 10 hours a day or more. I would like to thank Arro for letting me avoid this toxic work environment all together. Not worth the salary.
