Pros

Great company with potential for sustsinability and growth

Cons

Bias in promoting and hiring...preference shown for physically fit millenials and former friends rather than merit. Legitimate HR complaints for problems i.e. bullying and inappropriate behavior by superiors are worked through some communication but the perpetrators are not disciplined or terminated. Really smart and capable people are being undervalued and not given enough productive assignments while "favorites" are overassigned and nothing can get done. IT holds on to a lot of work that can be done at the health plan level in terms of report and dashboard development but is ridiculously slow to get the work done due to lack of resources. Actually the resources are there for you but the games played in hiring are crippling your progress.

Huge Company

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Huge company which owns more than 32 local market based Health Plans - One plan or more in multiple states in the continental US plus one in the UK and another in Spain. CEO has a great vision for the company's immediate future.

Cons

Only con is that its hard to transfer to another company owned plan, if located in a different state. The treatment is as if you are an outsider applying for a new job, rather than taking into consideration you already work for the company.
