Vantaggi

A steady paycheck in an otherwise turbulent economy. They also offer a decent 401k with employer matching to a certain percentage.

Svantaggi

A couple of years ago the company integrated with Windsor Health Group out of Nashville and shipped most of the business there, cutting hundreds of jobs in the Bellingham area. Inept senior management who lack a fundamental understanding of how the business functions. The company focus shifted from being very customer service oriented to extremely bottom-line oriented, no matter the impacts to the customers or providers. No understanding of work/life balance for salaried employees, even on vacations you are typically expected to work (if you are lucky enough to have one approved in the fist place - losing accrued vacation time at the end of the year is a rampant problem). Employees are extremely overworked across the organization and morale is very low. The HR department is extremely unhelpful if you have issues as most of the typical functions are outsourced and management will side with the higher-ranking employee in what probably nears 100% of disputes. If you are promoted from within the company you will receive significantly lower salary than someone coming from outside the company for the same job. Also, salaries are not at all competitive. Finally, although the company is posting huge losses we continue to receive (infrequent) communications from the CEO/executive level that the future is rosy and bright. I wouldn't recommend working here unless you are desperate for a job.

Vantaggi

The balance between work and family life is great. You can get time off whenever you need it. The office that I worked for had a lot of great people in it. They give you great training, and it would be very difficult to get fired. The senior market loves Sterling, and you get a lot of business from word of mouth.

Svantaggi

They have a very limited amount of products that you can sell, so when your not in open or annual enrollment for Medicare, it is very difficult to earn money. They are pushing door to door B2B sales as well as residential door to door sales. I had a few run ins with them not wanting to compensate me for my work. They are on a tight budget right now and don't spend any money on radio ads or TV ads, or any other marketing materials you may need.
