Pros

Food is incredible, lots of travel, salary is very competitive for recent grads without STEM degrees. Engaging work that felt like making a real difference.

Cons

The amount of work is very misleading going in. Work trips would have you and coworkers in the hotel lobby working till 8 or 9 every night, on top of long nights and home and at the office. Feedback culture can be very misguided, people submitting online feedback for the smallest of things because of push to submit tons and tons of it every month. Covid-19 response felt poor and patronizing, having staff Dr's referred to as "real doctors" in downplaying the pandemic in early March. Upper management felt out of touch the entire time, especially with the hesitation to work from home. Work from home shouldn't be controversial. Culture despite what is told is fairly non-existant.

Pros

Impact: You are part of creating systemic level change for healthcare organizations. You get to be on site and work directly with providers and see how these changes impact their communities. People: Extremely smart and capable. I feel like I can rely on my team in a way I haven't at previous employers. New hires are entry level, so there's a strong community for people in a similar stage of life. Culture: Quirky but in a real, unique way. People are collaborative and celebrate shared accomplishments. The campus enshrines a very specific (and fun!) vibe. Location: Madison is awesome. Benefits: The health insurance is unparalleled. Sabbatical is a super cool perk too. Growth: A lot of autonomy and responsibility allows people to rise to the challenge. Stability: Solid industry, no lay-offs.

Cons

Remote work flexibility: 5 days a year
