Pros

Hybrid work policy Ahima certification Advanced technology

Cons

Micro management -its like living under the microscope, even if u make a single error everyone in management will know like upto top level management with follow up of multiple questions, Work politics , Pressure , Overlapping of both optum and episource work policy , Favourism, Pressure on everything not only production/ quality but in everything like break timing , login logout timing. They will say flexible timing but have to login early , no matter how early u login u have to work late. U will monitored and questioned by multiple leads ( apart from ur project and team lead) Other tls also expects you to response and share every day to day details. You will not get recognised if u work honestly.

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 .
