Pros

Good retirement benefits including a pension plan. Employees seem to take work from home a lot, which is good given the high gas prices. Managers keep to themselves as long as the work is complete.

Cons

It is not a place to work if you need a challenging environment. I would say that employees as a whole come from very good companies and have decided to come to Kaiser to relax. There really isn't much competition between colleagues.

Pros

A noble mission... quality heath care at a reasonable cost... not for profit... its reputation as a second-rate provider of health care is changing to one of the better HMOs in the country... although a union shop, its labor-management partnership strategy has improved the working relationship between management and labor... there is an apparent commitment to avoid layoffs and retraining if tasks are eliminated

Cons

Large and slow moving... career advancement process lacks structure... each region as well as service area has its own way of doing things... difficult to coordinate systems and strategies
