Pros

people can coast there while doing nothing. Very social, they seem to care about the community and the company does care about the employees.

Cons

Not a whole lot going on. People have been there for eons no growth. Not the brightest work force. They socialize more then they do actual work. I worked with a guy who would complain and vent when I would present solutions he would get mad. Seems he wanted to complain only but not actually fix anything.

Pros

Generally, you can get by with doing a limited amount of low quality work. On-site gym and cafeteria is nice...and programs to socialize with coworkers is abundant. Recent new hires seem to be sharp and want change.

Cons

Very poor management. Decision making (even with obvious, flashing neon arrows) is done so cautiously that effectiveness is lost. High focus on chain of command and downright disdain for change agents and improvement attempts.

Pros

The company is not like Aetna and other for profit insurers. We actually have a conscience and commitment to serve the community.

Cons

Executive management has bungled PR. People view the company as the same as our for profit competitors. We are not. Layoffs have stretched us very thin. Employees are stressed and demoralized.
