Pros

Extensive 8 week classroom training. Benefits on day one. Lots of PTO hours and unplanned PTO hours. Positive atmosphere but that goes away once you get out of training.

Cons

They state that there are growth opportunities that are based on performance. But in reality you only have a good chance for growth and promotions if you’re “popular” and/or constantly kiss manager’s butts but don’t actually put in the hard work. CSA managers (not all, there are maybe 2 that don’t apply to this) make fun of employees and talk badly about particular employees to other employees who are in the same job position as them. They expect you to educate customer’s & to take your time with them and hit ridiculous metrics that are impossible for their expectations of being the customer’s advocate. There’s so much more I could put but these are the main cons of working at Cigna.

Pros

Great health benefits, access to multiple voluntary benefits including pet insurance, car insurance, and renters insurance and the premiums are deducted from payroll. Cigna offers health insurance premiums based on the income they pay you, there is an EAP that allows for 10 free counseling sessions, education benefits through Guild, pto based on career level, company provided computer equipment to work from home, Cigna will pay for a separate internet service just for work, and the work culture is inclusive.

Cons

Inadequate pay for the amount of work you do, stingy merit based raises each year, the performance metrics and policies that are difficult to comply with, because some policies and procedures contradict. Job training did not sufficiently prepare me for the added stress from taking back to back calls while servicing 10+ clients including Medicare D. There was not always enough pharmacists and patient care technicians to answer transfer calls timely. We have to wait on hold 20+ minutes for a mandatory transfers, then have to justify having excessive hold times to eMOS.
