Pros

Cigna seems to be a solid company with decent benefits and good pay..

Cons

If you a creative thinker and want to feel like your thoughts and ideas are going to be heard and love bleeding technology look else where. Turn over is high and the IT department is run from a draconian top down mentality that is like so "20 years ago". Management seems to marinate in nepotism beyond belief and is very "self serving". Unless your the select few in the "In group click" don't expect too much in the way of job satisfaction from this place. They do not show any serious signs of taking any interest in developing and keeping the little talent that they have hence the revolving door. Most big companies have already adopted since years ago new school motivational models of management and leadership when it come to running an IT shop and software development vs. the old school fear and intimidation model you see on display here if you don't walk the fine line or are not part of the "elite click" of people.

Pros

I was based at Cigna’s Bloomfield headquarters and thoroughly enjoyed my time there. I had the opportunity to work alongside exceptionally smart, action-oriented colleagues and business partners who were knowledgeable, responsive, and dependable. People knew their subject matter, provided direct answers, and consistently followed through on their commitments. The organization was highly professional, well-managed, and organized. The Wilde Building had a positive, forward-thinking energy that made it an enjoyable place to work. The cafeteria offered excellent food options, and the views overlooking Gillette Ridge Golf Club were a nice bonus. 30% annual bonus was greatly appreciated. Finally, I personally believed in the leadership of the CEO and the entire ELT.

Cons

During my two years with the company, I reported to three different managers, which created instability. One manager, in particular, created significant challenges for both the broader team and me. Multiple team members raised concerns with Human Resources, but no action was taken. The company also regularly conducts smaller-scale workforce reductions and position eliminations. These actions can occur across various departments and at different times, which creates uncertainty among employees. Because these reductions are small, they don't trigger a WARN Act or receive media attention. As a result, employees feel a heightened sense of job insecurity regarding future organizational changes.
