Pros
Aetna really cares about its customers. There is a real drive to find a solution for the uninsured. In addition, the company cares about its employees and puts a lot of effort into employee surveys and takes action from those.
Cons
The advancement opportunities are very limited unless you are in sales or IT. Too many of the opportunties are tied to the Hartford office or a specific site even when it is not required for the job. The salaries for division managers and site leads is not sufficient given that they are the ones who are responsible for the implementation of initiatives and must get individuals to move toward that as a group. Also, given the experience and skills of these groups, more decision making should reside at these levels.
