Pros

People on the whole were good folks, easygoing atmosphere. They let people who are so inclined take the lead and drive innovation.

Cons

The technology, like much of the health insurance industry, is old. Mainframe/COBOL are the technologies that drive the organization. Newer technologies are only slowly being adpoted.

Pros

Ability to work from home.

Cons

Extremely low salary for 2026. Far too much work to stay afloat. Everyone is on PTO constantly which makes training/help almost impossible. Tenured employees are unavailable majority of the time and leave unfinished work on your plate to deal with.
