Pros

Interesting work for diverse clients; reasonable work-loads; good policies with regard to part-time work

Cons

Mediocre "executive leadership team;" terrible management; bizarre disincentives built into a "matrix" system by which people are either "doers" or "sellers" or "managers," but not allowed to be some combination of two or three of these things

Pros

Compensation, work environment, benefits, although the penalty for the Humana fit program costs those who do not comply with providing personal health information.

Cons

Communication from mid-level management to staff is practically non-existent. Financial accountability silos conflict with the goal of applying the firms best fit KSA across regions.
