Pros

There are wonderful people that work at HMSA and that's probably the reason I've stayed as long as I have, 3 years. The company is making a big effort to walk the talk and improve the work we do for our community, and the environment we work in. In the last year HMSA has started a rooftop garden, introduced a weekly Farmer's Market, and brought in an outside vendor that sells salads to make it easy for employees to eat a healthy lunch. HMSA values work / life balance and the importance of family.

Cons

The corporate culture is in the process of changing, but there are still about 50% of the company that has "this is the way we've always done it" or "that's not my job" syndrome. People are complacent and there are so many layers of management and approvals that it takes a REALLY long time to get anything done. There are a lot of middle managers that don't have the authority to make decisions.

Pros

Flexible work schedule working from home is an option

Cons

No standard training, they fail to train you and then when mistakes happen they act like it is your fault when you were never given direction to complete task, it is blown off by management as human error on trainers part but you are shamed for it, management got to that seat by being there since HS uneducated and untrained as managers, managers afraid of conflict, HUGE discrimination issue. If you are not Polynesian don’t work here you will be outcast, the pay is TERRIBLE. Don’t waste your time and energy go work at COSTCO or Walmart and make more money with less headache.
