Pros

my direct reports were/are good- supportive, my previous manager was honest, and I really appreciated that. My colleagues have been supportive throughout emotionally and psychologically stressful times. Generous PTO although the process of requesting, reporting and recording seemed ridiculous.

Cons

leadership was totally not transparent about role and responsibility changes, salary and changes in incentive structures during and following massive layoffs + general radical restructuring. Position role and responsibilities were changed/increased, some colleagues' shift times we changed to overnight hours with no pay increase or shift differential although the cohort team we were being "aligned" with/assumed into, likely are paid more; leadership would not comment on pay discrepancies. Work environment was virtual but somehow, still toxic. It felt like a narcissistic relationship. the incentive bonus changes resulted in about a 10k annual decrease in salary.

Pros

Working here has officially joined my personal list of the top employers I’ve had the opportunity to be a part of. It will remain at the very top as one of the best work-related experiences of my career. Looking back, I can genuinely say I loved my time with this company. They don't just talk about a supportive culture—they live it every day. They truly set the standard for what a healthcare company and its leadership teams should look like, and they have proven it time and again through their actions. They truly set the benchmark for workplace culture and leadership excellence.

Cons

None to mention really everything was truly great , Fully Remote is the BEST MORE and Productive and Healthiest environment they have fostered .
