Pros

Toward the end, I was having such a negative experience, that I really can't name many. They used to take care of employees with the bonus structure that was in place, but that isn't the case anymore. Profit-share, performance, and xmas bonus have been cut every year for many years now. I've watched co-workers in tears because they relied on a bonus that used to be there that wasn't anymore.

Cons

Micromanagement, lack of empathy from management, constantly asking for more from employees without corresponding compensation. They recently cut back in EVERY. BONUS. CATEGORY. Rumors about the highest members of management being investigated for insider trading - funny too, because their lack of faith in THEIR OWN COMPANY caused us all to lose massive amounts of money in stocks. HR loves to talk about the CDP which only works if you have a supervisor that is willing to help you. The patient advocate supervisors that are truly good are few and far between. The rest are so stressed out by the expectations from their own managers, that they have to micromanage and make their teams lives a living hell in order to meet metrics. Can't tell you how many times I could do something completely correctly and still get docked and still get feedback about "how I could improve". If you're employees are doing a good job, why not just tell them that? Let them feel good for a modicum of a second? Nope, not here. No good feelings, I'm glad to have moved on. I've since heard about changes since I left and I am so grateful I left when I did. No silver lining, no dawn on the horizon.

Pros

Really strong work from home culture, most the people are pretty nice and easy to get along with.

Cons

A couple of really loud corporate types cause problems for everybody else. It's not clear at all that leadership has Any idea what they're doing and stock prices are plummeting and layoffs continue. Too many people think they're the CEO
